Wonderful pictures, music and tribute for Ashley. Obviously, he was loved by many; as said. I remember how cute & precious Ashley was when he was born. I had the pleasure of babysitting him, Leanne, and Steve until I moved to Florida. Bold prayers for his remaining family. I especially appreciate Liz, Steve, and anyone else involved in taking the time to make these loving memories available to all. I'm sad and want to extend my heart felt sympathy, Connie

Prayers to Ashley’s family especially Liz and Steve for their unwavering love and support to Ashley. Liz and I have been friends for 43 years and had the opportunity to see each other’s kids grow into adults. Ashley had a personality, funny and not a stranger to anyone. Prayers, love and hugs my friends. Rest in peace Ashley. Cheri
