Help Us Honor Ashley's Memory

Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters,

It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of the passing of our beloved Ashley. She left us on 8/27/2024 at 6:09pm after dealing with sudden illness. As we come to terms with this profound loss, we are reaching out for your support to help cover the costs of Ashley’s funeral and memorial services.

Ashley was a kind, funny, and special person who cared about so many people. Anyone who knew her would say the same. She was a beautiful daughter, sister, granddaughter, a phenomenal cat mom, and

a loving friend, and an inspiration to everyone who knew her. She touched many lives with her kindness, humor, and loving presence, and she will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

When asked how she handles her job, she put it beautifully as "Lots of people ask how I can handle my job? (I work with severely abused children/teenagers/abandoned and usually abusing some sort of substance) many are aggressive because it’s all they know. And having rules or guidelines doesn’t make sense because they’ve never had them before. So yeah they go into fight or flight mode and I may get hurt or my coworkers, but I can always understand and I’ve watched more kids make it through their severe trauma over time and I will never give that up. Watching them actually make it, makes every day worth it."

Those words about sum up her immense love and kindness.

In these trying times, the unexpected expenses of arranging a proper farewell have become a financial burden. We want to ensure that Ashley receives the respectful and loving tribute she deservers, but we need help to cover the costs of the funeral, memorial service, and any other associated expenses.

We are kindly asking for your support during this difficult period. Any contribution, no matter the size, will go directly towards covering the funeral expenses and easing the financial strain on Ashley’s family. Your generosity will not only help us honor Ashley's memory but also provide comfort and relief to those grieving this immense loss.

We are incredibly grateful for your love, support, and compassion during this time. Your kindness means more than words can express, and it helps us find solace in the midst of our grief.

With heartfelt thanks, Ashley's family,
