Ashley Koehler

Our youngest daughter, Ashley, and her husband Brent Koehler have five children; 4 boys in high school and a daughter in middle school. To support a family of seven, they both work. Brent full-time (with other part time ventures on evenings and weekends) and Ashley by way of three primary revenue steams she enjoys; cleaning commercial and residential properties, food service substitute for the local school district, and her favorite - wedding venue manager.

Recently Ashley learned she has a tumor near the base of her brain. The doctors at Mayo Clinic in Rochester have recommended it be removed in a surgery scheduled for May 6th. The doctors have informed her that recovery time is typically three months. Durning this time there is to be no heavy lifting or strenuous activity. Thus she will most likely be unable to bring in her income for at least three months. In addition to that, there are expenses not fully covered by medical insurance.

The goal of this fundraiser is to help cover lost wages and out of pocket medical expenses. Please don’t feel compelled in any way to give financial. However, if it is your true desire out of love for Ashley and her family, this is one way to express your love and care for them.

We would also sincerely appreciate your prayers for no longterm adverse effects resulting from the removal of the tumor. We also trust that she and her family would appreciate any other forms of love and support. Please reach them directly to make those arrangements.

Trusting in Him for the next chapter in Ashley’s life,

David and Patti Fredrickson
