In the Alumni Office, we love seeing the demon deacon children of alumni! (Or pictures of alumni when they were little deacons themselves.)

And we figured we weren’t the only ones. We will be featuring “darling deacons” here on Alumni, So Dear. It’s a chance for alumni parents to share with the Wake Forest community pictures of their children in all of their Black & Gold gear. We’re happy for alumni to take a walk down memory lane and send in any childhood Wake Forest photos of themselves, too.

This week’s Darling Deacon is Ava Elizabeth Dings. Her parents are Kate Rigby (’05 JD) and Ryan Dings (’05 JD). Ryan wrote in an email, “We tried to get our daughter to hold the Wake pennant, but she had other ideas!” Looks like Old Gold & Black is ever waving high as long as Ava has a say!

We are excited to share another darling deacon soon.

Would you like to be considered for darling deacon of the week? Email your photo and the names of those pictured, your name and class year, and any other related information to alumni@wfu.edu. Photos should incorporate Wake Forest in some way for publication.
