Tonya, I'm so sorry for the loss of your precious Ashley. The heartache and sorrow of losing a child is the worst thing for a parent to have to have to go through. I'm praying for comfort as you face the days ahead. May The Lord be with you and your family. Love you.

Dear Kinsey, Patricia, Amanda and Ty
Ronnie and I were so shocked to hear about Ashlee's passing. We were so blessed to have known her, and been a small part of her life. She was an amazing, and fearless young woman.
We are praying for each and all of you.
All our love and sympathies,

The news of you passing has really made me do a lot of thinking. We have had so many memories together. From living next door to each other at the "ghetto" to going and riding horses listening to nothing but Dixie Chicks. To riding bus 51 together in middle school / high school. We were so close growing up and I wish more than anything we hadn't become so distant. You were always such an inspiration to me. You stayed strong and never gave up hope that one day you would beat this for good. Cancer didn't win. You did. I'm glad you found happiness in your life before you lost your battle. You found true love and even more strength that you never knew you even had. I pray for your family at this time. They lost one amazing woman. But this isn't goodbye from me. Or anyone else. We will see you again one day pretty girl.
