DAVID MACOMBER ASHLEY

We were shocked and saddened to receive your note about Dave's passing. He will be sadly missed by all of his DWM friends. Our outings will never be the same without him. We extend our very deepest sympathies to you and the family. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Stuart,

I just happened to check out the Burlington Free Press and am shocked and saddened by the passing of your Dad. He was a wonderful person, always very entertaining and fun. I have fond memories of cross country skiing in the woods behind the houses, the hikes up Mount Mansfield and playing trivial pursuit. And the haircuts and beardtrims on Mother's Day.
May you and yours find comfort in knowing that he led a wonderful life.
With Sympathy and Love, Linda

Dear Sandra and Family, David enriched my life for 30 years in the Choral Union, Wintergreen, rehearsals, our trip to England and France, and bell ringing! I shall always think of him as a superb musician! Please know that your loss is everyone's - our prayers are with you. Judith and Don Hillman

Sandra and family - We were saddened to learn

My thoughts are with you. David will be deeply missed in the musical world.
My deepest condolences.

Dear Mrs. Ashley and to all the Ashley family,
I worked with Dave a bit when directing and playing with the Enosburg Town Band, and was so sorry to hear of his passing. Such a nice man, and I know music meant so much to him. My sympathy goes out to you. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Sandra and family,
I was saddened by the news of David's passing. For many years I worked in the Choral Union as a fellow singer and later as director. David's sense of humor and wit often entertained me and so many others. I pray that the time ahead may be comforted by your great memories and support of friends and each other. Please assured of the thoughts and prayers of both Lynn and I.

David and I worked together for 7 yrs. at F.F.F. I can still feel his laughter. His kind heart and determination for excellence will always be remembered. God bless you and your family during this time. With sympathy and prayers - Colleen Leonard-Nichols

Stuart and family- sending you the deepest sympathy during this difficult time.

Sandra, Dave and I worked together for 7 years at FFF back in the 60's. He was a great teacher to this young structural engineer. He also got me into running---never could keep up with him! Had many a laugh and never a cross word. Great guy for whom I had the most respect. My condolences to you and your family. Carroll Lawes

Ashley families, we send our condolences, thoughts and prayers out to you on the passing of David.

To Jon and your whole family, I was sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. I can remember him bringing you and I to Boy Scouts in Essex. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

So sorry to hear about David's passing. Don and I wanted to let you know you you are in our thoughts at this time. Don and Sue Foss

To David's family:
I sang in Choral Union for many years and always loved being around David. He had such zest for life and loved his music and friends. I haven't seen him in a few years, but always think about his dancing and beard around Christmastime when we would do the Carol Dinners.
My thoughts are with you.

I was just so sad to hear about this! All of my thoughts are with you. May you find some peace in the coming days.

All of our love, Peg, Pierre & family

To Mrs. Ashley and the rest of the family - My thoughts and prayers are with you. David was such a wonderful person. I had so much fun over the years playing in different bands with him. I will miss his presence. My deepest condolences.

We are so sorry and we extend to the entire family our condolences. We will miss David very much.

Dear Sandra and family: I was so shocked to read of David's passing in the paper this morning. I saw him less than a month ago at our Beethoven's 9th rehearsal. I was happy to see him still singing, and as he told me, skiing. He helped inspire my running so many years ago in Westford.

My condolences to you and your family. This must be such a shock.

Fondly,

Sally Howe (Pollak)

Dear Sandra and Ashley Family,

I spent most of the day, yesterday, thinking of all of you and the suddenness of David's passing. We shared some tears and fond memories last night at choir, and clearly, David's absence was felt.

Bless you all. Carol Gross
