Ashley Nicole Windle

Liberty Center, Ohio:
Ashley Nicole Windle, 41, of Liberty Center, danced her way into the stars on June 30, 2025. Her wild, beautiful heart was simply too big for this world.
Ashley was a true free spirita vibrant soul who loved deeply, gave without hesitation, and lived with fearless authenticity. She was a treasured daughter, beloved sister, and the proudest "Aunt Ash" you could ever meet. Her most cherished title was dog mom to Max and Lacey, who werent just petsthey were her children, her comfort, her home.
She didnt just walk through lifeshe wandered, explored, and felt every bit of it, always ready to give the shirt off her back, a crystal from her pocket, or the warmest hug you didnt know you needed. Her love was a kind of magic, leaving gentle fingerprints on the hearts of all who knew her.
Ashley expressed herself in countless ways, but music and creativity were the heart of her beingflowing through her art, her crafts, and those wild, spontaneous moments when shed sing and dance with abandon. Her jam sessions with nieces and nephews were legendaryfull of laughter, silliness, and soulturning ordinary moments into unforgettable memories. She lived in tune with something biggerand her presence was like standing barefoot in the grass under a sky full of starspeaceful, real, and impossible to forget.
Ashley is deeply loved and profoundly missed by her mother, Theresa Eitzman, and stepfather, Greg (Binxsy) Eitzman; her father, Terry (Lori) Sager; her siblings Melissa (Tyler) Saneholtz, Amanda (Sean) Null, Ryan (Jenna) Sager, and Kristin (Joe) McMullen, Tarrin (Augie) Augustine, Tye Eitzman; nineteen adoring nieces and nephews; her husband, Mike Windle; sisters-in-law Julie and Amber Windle; mother-in-law Penelope Windle; and a niece and nephew from Mikes side who held a special place in her heart.
Now reunited with loved ones who went before her, she is undoubtedly sharing laughter and peace on the other side.
Ashleys laugh, her untamed light, her fierce lovethey were gifts. And those gifts remain. She is stardust now, but her spirit lingers in every song, every sunset, every whisper of wind through the trees.
'Those we love never truly leave us. There are things that death cannot touch.'
