In Honor of Ashton Arauz

The life of Ashton was taken from us on September 8th, 2021. It was a tragedy that none of us could have ever foreseen or been prepared for. He was a wonderful kid, always so kind and loving towards his friends and family, especially his mother Janet. His family was able to gather around him to share their love, stories, tears, laughs and ultimately say goodbye. 

Ashton loved to play sports, fashion, sneakers, playing video games with his friends, cook for his mom, make up his own music, and so much more. He always lived with passion and excitement, Ashton was the happiest kid. He had some crazy curly hair, which matched his goofy personality. He is unlike anyone else, and will forever be missed and loved. 

As his brother, I can say it was an honor to be related and I will always forever be proud of him. Ashton thank you so much for being the incredible human you are. We are blessed to have you as our angel and we will take care of mom for you. 

We love you so much. 

Your brother's Blake and Josh.

Note: This fundraiser was created to support Ashton's mom, Janet. The funds will be transferred directly to Janet to help cover funeral services, medical fees, legal advisory, therapy, and any unforeseen expenses. The GoFundMe account is being managed by her son, Blake Goldstein.  

PS: Thank you to Janet's dear friends Liz and Michael for starting this fundraiser.

Hi, All I can say is that Ashton was a young man, only 17 years old, was a student at Esperanza High School. Has lived on Glenview Avenue since grade school, his life was taken from him. My heart is broken as many other are hurting, especially his mother, who I care so much for and is so caring and loving and gracious, raised a kind polite son.

We want to raise enough money to accommodate for his memorial and time for his family to recuperate fairly. Thank you for all of your Prayers and Love for the Family at this time of sorrow. May God Bless you. Thanks again for your help.
