Support Ashley and Her Boys in Crisis

I'm Lauren Kirkpatrick, a close friend of Ashley Pinkham and her boys Harper (8) and Gavin (6). On Saturday October 12, 2024, Ashley’s common law husband and the boys’ father, Daniel Lyles, lost his long battle with alcoholism suddenly and tragically.

After a long summer of being unsure of their housing situation and bouncing around a bit, the family was able to buy a home here in Lakewood at the end of August. It seemed like an amazing start to the school year for the boys at their beloved Foothills Elementary, and a possible new season for everyone; peace and stability were the main goals for these amazing little boys.

This is not a request to raise funds for a memorial or funeral arrangements. This is a humble request stemming from a DRASTIC NEED for immediate living expenses for Ashley and her sons like groceries, November’s mortgage payment, electricity and heat, gas, etc…

This family is in crisis, and if you are not, I ask you to please give whatever you can to let these boys and Ashley stay in their safe and warm home as the holidays quickly approach and she navigates this challenging season of trauma recovery and newly single motherhood for her, Harper and Gavin. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

In sadness and deep gratitude,

Lauren Kirkpatrick (on behalf of Ashley, Harper and Gavin)
