I watched Ashley grow since he was about 11 years old. He was at our house almost everyday, If not everyday. We shared alot of experiences together. I had the great opportunity to be with him before he left us and it was good to have that lasting memory of hanging together before I never got to see him again. He touched my life in more ways that can be expressed with these few lines. I miss him dearly and I'm going to do my part in never letting people forget who he is. Ashley Kellum, I Miss You!
