It is with deep sorrow and much love that we mourn the passing of Ashlee Dawn Rivera of Tooele County, who left us on September 3, 2025, at the age of 34.
Ashlee was born on January 17, 1991, to Tracey Fullmer and Steve Rivera in
Tooele, Utah. She was a beloved daughter, sister, aunt, friend, and most importantly a devoted mother. Ashlee touched the lives of many through her humor, warmth, kindness, strength, and creativity.
Ashlee graduated from Tooele High School in 2009. She expressed her fascination with medicine and her caring nature by pursuing a career in emergency care. Ashlee worked as an AEMT for the University of Utah, showing immense bravery as a frontline worker during the pandemic. She later transitioned to working at a family medical practice.
Ashlee held many talents and was known by family and friends for her creativity. Her artistic ability and love were reflected in her drawings, paintings, tattoos, handmade costumes, and arts and crafts for her children. She had an eclectic taste in music and enjoyed nearly all genres, especially punk rock and indie.
Ashlee had a contagious sense of humor. It was rare to spend more than a few minutes with her without sharing laughter. She could quote nearly any comedy movie and had a special love for Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Ashlee was loving mother to her three children: Jett, Isabelle, and Vincent. She cherished them deeply. Ashlee embraced motherhood in all its aspects, from her excitement in planning nursery themes to intricately wrapping presents under a perfectly decorated Christmas tree. She strived to make her children feel as special as they were to her.
Ashlee is survived by her daughter, Isabelle Lundy; her sons, Jett Lundy and Vincent Lundy; her mother, Tracey Fullmer; her father, Steve Rivera; her grandmother, Sandra "Sandy" Fullmer (Bob); her sisters, Danielle Lopez and Stefani Anderson; her brothers, Cody Lopez (Aubrey) and Braiden Candelaria (Chanelle); her nieces, Olivia Lopez, Harper Lopez, Nova Lopez, and Alyssa Anderson; her nephews, Nathan Hawkins, Rhino Anderson, and Bronson Candelaria; as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and lifelong friends, all of whom will forever cherish her memory.
Ashlee was preceded in death by her grandfather, Jay Tracy "Bear" Fullmer; her grandmother, Rose Rivera; her father-in-law, Joseph Lundy; her brother, Mario Mondragon; and her uncle, Matthew Fullmer.
Family and friends are invited to celebrate and honor Ashlee on Saturday, September 13, 2025, at Tate Mortuary. Visitation will begin at 10:00 AM, with services starting at 11:00 AM. A luncheon will be held directly after the services at the Tooele Moose Lodge.
