"I wish I had the words to comfort you mom, sisters and family... But I don't! I cannot and still don't want to believe this is real.. I will never forget your smile, laugh and most of all your legacy! Love you Ashley, Angel, Mandy and Marsha Michelle"

"It has been so hard since you left. Everyday I miss you more than yesterday. I don't know what to do without you. I love you more. Mom "

"Not a second goes by that I don't think about you I just wish I could have you back I miss you so much and I love you so much"

"As one poem says... Its not the way you start your life nor the way you find it ends. It is the dash you make between those dates as you encounter loved-ones, family and friends. And those who along life's way you help their hearts to mend. Sleep sweat child til the last trumpet sounds"

"I rode the bus with Ashley years ago in New Richmond. It's been many years since I have seen Ashley but I still remeber the fun and smiles we shared. Rest well Ashley, I will keep you and your family in my thoughts. "

"You were always my rock . you made me feal complete and full. I will never forget you, love and thanks, your friend, Ron"

"Ours hearts and prayers go out to the family of Ashley. We did not have the pleasure of meeting her but our daughter Amanda is friends with Samantha and we have been thinking and praying for Ashley and her family. "

"God blessed me with being able to meet Ashley and her family after Thanksgiving while she was at Kettering. I adopted the family to help out with Christmas. I was also able to help with support from our Cancer Hope group at Southbrook Church I gave Ashley a prayer pager that she loved. She loved the fact that every time the pager went off someone prayed for her that she didn't even know. Ashley I pray you are flying with the angels and free from all the pain from your earthly body. "

"She wore her heart in her eyes. Everytime she smiled you saw love...Light and Love..you will be missed"

"Ash - you will always be in my thoughts and heart! I will make sure your kids/my grandkids know how wonderful you are and how much you love them!!! Baby I will see you in heaven!!!! Love you!!!! All my love Daddy!!!"

"you will be so missed Ashley..i love how positive and happy you always were,and such a fighter..i love and miss you! RIP"

"We will miss you Ashley. Always had a good time when you was at Angel's. Me and Delores have good memories of you and your beautiful smile. We will see you again. Miss you"

"The say that Ashley was alot like me ,but if you ask me I can learn alot from her.She always lived and loved like there won't be a tomorrow. I think we should all learn from her and do the same! We love you Ashley and you will always be in are hearts!! "

"we miss her already. she was a wonderful grandaughter!! we miss her laughter and smiles. she was just a great person and mother. even when she was very sick, we would walk in and she would say nana & papaw!!! i love you!!! we love her & miss her & can't say enough good things about her. love you Ash!!!!"

"I never had the pleasure of meeting Ashley, except through her mother-in-law, Deonna Riley. Deonna always spoke so highly of Ashley, and what a good wife and mother she was. I'm sure that Deonna will help keep Ashley's memories alive for her children as they grow up. Please accept my deep sympathy and prayers for your loss. God Bless you all and be with you for comfort and strength. "

"Even though I never met Ashely, I had the pleasure of meeting her beautiful Mom, Marsha. A mom who loved and cherished her. May your beautiful spirit be with your family for ever. My heart is heavy, but I know God makes no mistakes. "

"I personally never got the pleasure of meeting Ashley but felt like I knew her through her precious mother-in-law, Deonna Riley. She adored Ashley and had only wonderful, loving words to say about her. She let me know what a wonderful mother she was and just a truly loving woman and wife. My thoughts and prayers are with those precious children and Trevyn. Deonna my heart goes out to you and also Ashley's family. God wrap your loving arms around this family and give them the strength that only you can give to all of them. "

"I like very one will always remember her beautiful smile and caring ways! My thoughts and prayers are with trevyn and those beautiful babies and her entire family! "

"Unfortunately, I don't have a memory to speak of. I did not know Ashley, but my cousin, Summer Burton, sure spoke highly of her and told her story on Facebook. I just wanted to let the family know that stories like this are sad, even for total strangers. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers."

"I first met Ashley through her sister Angel when she was 14. So many good memories of smiles, laughes and fun times. Ashely, you definitely new how to put a smile on everyones face in any situation. I looked at you as another sister. You showed so much strength and courage. May you rest in peace precious angel and suffer no more. You will definitely be missed. Miss and love you! Psalms 31:9 O'Lord have mercy on me in my anguish. My eyes are red from weeping; my health is broken in sorrow. "

"Ashley came into my life when she was only 3 years old. Although I am her step-mother I love her as she is my own and really truly thought of her as she was. I love you Ashley and will miss you more than I can say!!! I have too many memories to just pick one but I would like to share what an inspiration she was for me, no matter what she was going through personally she always smiled and worried about everyone else. Ahsley had the most positive attitude through everything. Your father, myself and your entire family will make sure your beautiful children will always know how wonderful you are!! We have so many videos and pictures and memories to share. I love you!!!!"

"I met Ashley through her beautiful mother Marsha....Ashley always had a positive attitude about everything, although she was the one going through all of this pain, she wanted to if you were okay and comfort you. Ashley i will forever love you and your family. I know you are with GOD now and in good hands. You will be missed but never forgotten...RIP Ashley! May God's love comfort your family and friends as they go through this difficult time!"

"My son Jason (who has now passed on) was Trevyn's best friend when they were growing up. We never had the chance to meet Ashley and now we will have to wait until it is our turn to pass on. Ashley sounds like a wonderful fun-loving person, mother and wife. All day yesterday, before I found out about Ashley's passing, as I was praying for her, I kept feeling like someone was tapping me on my shoulder or lightly poking me in my back. I dare say it was Jason trying to tell me that she was in up there with him in a better place where we all call heaven. May you rest in peace Ashley. John and I look forward to meeting you in the next world. "

"The first time I met Ashley was at the hospital, we were there waiting on her mother in law to get out of surgery. Ashley & I connected right away! She is an angel & will be a guardian angel over her precious little children."

"I will always remember the days we spent blaring the radio and singing on the top of our lungs. We spent countless days together having the most fun I've ever had no matter what we were doing! I will always cherish those memories and many many more and will always miss my best friend, Ashley.. Love you."

"I have so many memories I cant pick just one. You were the bright light of our family especially me. You were my better half and was always by my side. It has always been Ashley and Mandy not just Mandy. I will keep your name going and you stay shinning bright, "

"so happy to br her friend and at her children birthday party she was so happy and that beaitful smile will never for get you Ashley R.I.P."

"ASHLEY GOING TO MISS YOU ALSO ON FACE BOOK YOUR BEAITHFUL GOD BE WITH HER CHILDREN AND ALL HER FAMILY RIP ASHLEY"

"Ashley you will be miss by all your loved ones"

"Ashley was standing outside the funeral home when we drove up, to Garfield's funeral, she gave us the prettiest smile. That smile made us feel so welcome. I wish we could have seen each other more often, Ashley and got to know one another more. Rest In Peace beautiful lady. "

"We had talked right after Halloween about getting together since I just moved to Miamisburg & didn't know anyone. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. I know we weren't close, but you were always an inspiration to me. No matter what you never gave up. No matter what I'm doing or where I am every time I hear Diamonds by Rihanna I will ALWAYS think of you. RIP Ashley!"

"I can remember when I first met you...You were about 7 and my mom and I were getting ready to move in next door. Over the next 8 years our lives were filled with many backyard football games, hide and seek, video games, fights, friends and lots of laughter and I had the pleasure of watching you grow into a young woman. My only regret is not making an effort to get out to Bethel and visit you and the family while you were all together. I may not have seen you in over a decade but I thought about you and your family quite often. Know you will forever be missed. "

"Ashley, you were honestly they most goofy, crazy person I have ever met! You are always smiling! And always so positive, I look up to you so much for that! That is what I will remeber you by. I will tell your children the stories of the good times I remember with you. I love you so much girl! And I will always strive to be more like you =) "

"You were a great person its sad losing you so soon ashley I will miss you forever until one day I see you again thank you for being the best friend any one could ask for your family will be in my thoughts you will never be forgotten "

"i didnt have the honor of knowing you ,but i can tell you were a very good mother my thoughts and prayers are with your little chrildren and family"

"May ashley rest in peace, she has been one of the most strongest women I know and I am glad I got to know her starting when we went to monroe elementary together may the lord comfort you all during this time of need.."

"You all are in my thoughts and prayers. May you fly amongst the Angels Ashley and Rest in Peace. May God's love comfort all of you during this time of need. Praying for you all! Love You Steph, Jeff and Colton"
