Ashley Campos Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jul. 20, 2024.
Ashley Darlene Campos, known affectionately as Ash, passed away on July 12, 2024, at the age of 35 in Neptune City, NJ. Born on May 15, 1989, in Elizabeth, NJ, she was a beloved figure known for her vibrant spirit and compassionate nature.

Ashley's life was marked by her profound love for the written word, often expressing herself through beautifully crafted stories and poems. Her affinity for the beach and the ocean was profound, finding solace and inspiration along the shorelines. A staunch animal lover, Ashley dedicated much of her time to rescuing and caring for animals, a testament to her generous and caring personality.

Despite her claim of not being a people person, Ashley had a big heart. She was always ready to stand up and speak out for those who couldn't defend themselves, showcasing her strong principles and courage. Her quick wit and sarcastic humor were sources of joy and laughter for those around her.

Ashley's hobbies included reading, writing, and coloring, which were her ways of cherishing quiet moments. Her love for music and animals also played a significant role in her life, bringing her immense happiness and comfort.

She is survived by her mother, Bernadette Campos; father, Anthony Campos; grandmother, Maria Odete Campos; brother, Justin Campos; half-brother, Kevin Orlando; half-sister, Gianna Campos; and stepfather, Walter Funes. Ashley was preceded in death by her grandfather, James Iasello, and grandmother, Florence Iasello.

Ashley's life and spirit will be profoundly missed by her family, friends, and all who knew her. Her legacy of kindness, creativity, and advocacy will continue to inspire those who were fortunate enough to have known her.

Ashley, my baby girl - today marks one year since you said goodbye.

Not a day goes by that I don´t miss you or think about you. But I think you know that. Every morning, I see your picture, say good morning, and sit with you - just me, my coffee, and my smoke before work.

I often think back to the last day we spent together. I´m so glad I took that day off. My only regret is not spending that night in the hospital with you. I had planned to be there the next night... but that time never came.

Still, I find comfort knowing I played our song - The Lullaby - for you one last time before you left us. I hope you heard it.

I love you. I miss you more than words will ever say.
Forever and always,
Dad

Growing up Ashley had a stereo and microphone set in her room. We would spend hours singing karaoke, making up scary stories, and sharing silly jokes as kids. Growing up Ashley would always break out in laughter just by the thought of these memories. She always knew how to make someone laugh.
