"I am so very sorry to hear about Ashely. I loved her so very much. I don't think she knew just how much I loved and enjoyed her and her company. When I heard about her death, I could not believe, I refused to believe it. She was a good freind and I looked forward to seeing her every time I came back from school. She helped me with my math cause I'm math challenged and she accompained me and Nikki and Megan on our trips to the movies or where ever we were going. I remember the first time we talked. She made fun of me because I said "ya'll". Then we made fun of her because she supported USC in the rose bowl. I also remember her facination with deer. We would see some on the side of the road alive and she would freak out and tell us how cool they were. We had some very good and interesting times. I miss her so much. I will always hold a special place for her in my memories. Again, I am so very sorry for your loss. I hope all is well. Love, Kady"
"Rhonda, Rob, and Sara, This world has just lost a very special person - and you are the wonderful family that loved and nurtured her and shared her with all of us. Rhonda - I think often of the daily stories that you would tell of Ashley's creative approach to life. She was bright, fun, energetic, and could negotiate her way into anything even at an extremely young age. My thoughts and prayers are with you. May God care for you and your family during this difficult time as heaven rejoices in gaining the beautiful young girl that you have raised so well. With love and prayers, Kathryn"
