Thank you all so much for kind words during the recent loss of my precious angel. It has been the hardest thing I will ever have to go thru as a parent. While I am saddened for my loss, I also find condolence in knowing that she touched so many lives and continues to do so even in death. My heart will forever ache but finds peace in your encouraging words. Much love to all

You may not remember me, but years ago, I interviewed Ashley for an article in the St. Clair News-Aegis. I am so very sorry for your loss. Ashley was a beautiful young lady. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

CF Mom

My 14-year old daughter who also has cystic fibrosis, was friends with Ashley on Facebook. When my daughter faced tough times related to her CF, Ashley gave her advice and encouragement via Facebook. We are very grateful for Ashley's wisdom and generous spirit. Ashley and all of you are in our prayers.

Hey sweet Ashley: I know we didn't know each other for that long and weren't really close-but I felt we grew closer and closer over the last year or so. You have always and still will be special in my heart. I know you are rejoicing in Heaven and looking down on all of us now. I admire you for your strength, and courage. You are such a beautiful young lady who had so much love to offer. You will always be remembered and I will cherish our conversations we had on Monday. Love you bunches.

”I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.” (2 Timothy 7-8)

I am deeply saddened to hear of Ashley’s passing. She was a beautiful girl with a sweet spirit and infectious personality. I took care of her when she was sick and learned to be a better therapist because of her. She will be missed very much.

I pray that the Lord will bring peace and comfort to your family in your time of sorrow.

May the LORD reach down from heaven and wrap his love and strength around this childs family.She was a joy to read and follow with her pictures on FACEBOOK. I ENJOYED HER, ESPECIALLY BEECAUSE OF HER SPECIAL CHARACTER, REALLY A UNIQUE GIFT FROM HEAVEN. Not only will her family miss her, so many people, she touched their lives in a special way, will also.
I love the LORD, and would pray you may find some comfort through reading my lifeverse. GOD gave me this verse, on my knees,HE told me to share it;
"FOR I RECKON THE SUFFERINGS OF THIS PRESENT TIME ARE NOT WORTHY TO COMPARE TO THE GLORY THAT SHALL BE REVEALED IN US"(ASHLEY HAS SEEN HER GLORY OF GOD?)
ROMANS 8:18
I will pray for each member of her family, and her mother, Carolyn, who also has a big heart.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL GOD tells us to cry at birth and rejoice at death, but HE also gave us human hearts that love others, we just all want to be together, and i expect to see ASHLEY again.

May the LORD wrap HIS loving arms around this family, as they grieve over this precious loss. No, things will never be the same without her, but know her CF family, and eveyone that knew her, loved her very much. I will miss her being on FB and seeing her picures, i so enjoyed those, for she has a special character about her. Ashley was a beautiful young lady, and she gave me many blessings. May I share my lifeverse with you, for maybe it will give you some small peace in your hearts.
"For I Reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared to the glory that shall be revealed in us(me)"ROMANS 8:18
ASHLEY has seen her glory, and we can "only imagine" how wonderful that is. May GOD richly bless her family, and all that loved her,with peace in all hearts, that ASHLEY has been healed!
