My dear daughter Ashley, whom I miss so much has left me to touch the face of God.
Ashley shot into the world determined to make her presence felt. She was the best baby, a fun-filled toddler who loved to spend time with her daddy. When Ashley was 3 and half, she was extremely loving to her new baby sister, Brittany. They became inseparable. They did everything together.
She leaves a huge emptiness in the hearts of all of us who loved her, many who were her friends, and even more who just had a glimmer of her through our family. She was only 34, she was bursting with life and we became each other’s best friend
She always told me she would be here to take care of me. I never imagined she would be the one to leave me first. I never thought there would be a last hug, a last kiss, or a last “I Love you.”
She was fun and had a contagious smile and when she allowed herself, she was the life of the party. She wanted to try all things new and was not afraid. Ashley enjoyed life, she loved her family and friends with all she had.

Sara and Brittany:
It is hard to know the correct and comforting words to express for one’s loss of a child. More so to understand why, reason or way and how this loss came to be. God grants us the love and time he allows and when he calls one home it for his reasons. We may not understand and never will. For in our human realistic world a child no matter their age, are to live way beyond our years and bury us first, we are to leave this world before them. It is not the way you would of ever wanted for your loving child and sister.
I am and family members are so sorry for this loss for you and Brittany. It effects many in her life as I saw at the service. It was so enduring to hear of my sisters life through you, my sister Brittany and others. To see the love that she had through so many and blessed with all she truly had.
Please find some peace in knowing she is with Our Lord God and Savior, and family whom have left before us. I know and feel that dad and Sheree greeted her with open arms, as well as other family.
She may be gone in the physical world but she will always remain until the end of time in the hearts and thoughts of everyone. The love does not stop it shall only continue and remain.
May God continue to help you both to heal no matter what amount of time it takes. May he be there to help find peace and continue on life’s journey until the day he calls you home where you will be reunited with Ashley and family.
God Bless you both and all family and friends. I send you my prayers and love.
Debbye
Ashley be wrapped in the arms of God. Rest in the peace you now have, and welcome loved ones when God calls them home. I have always and shall continue to love you.
Gwendy Vanucci says
Sara and Brittany….. I loved your Ashley like a daughter… she was there for me when I lost my son Tommy 10 years ago.
Ashley and my daughter Kristy were very close, I know Kristy considered her one of her best friends.
I wish I had some magic words of comfort for you… all I can say is she may not be her in body, but she’ll always be with you in spirit. Try to celebrate her life and not mourn too long on her death. Her personality was larger than life! I hope she is sitting next to God, and hanging out with my Tommy.
Martin Grant says
Hi Gwendy! I’m sorry about your Tommy! I know you loved him very much….. I cannot fathom such a loss!
