I didn't know Ashley; I am a Yankton resident and heard of the accident on Monday. I want you to know that Ashley and her family, and Curtis and his family, have been on my mind, in my heart and in my prayers since the accident. I can only imagine the devastation felt by friends and family. I know I am only one person, and a stranger, but each life is precious and I know her absence does/will hurt. I'm sorry for your loss and your painâ™¡â™¡â™¡

Our sincere sympathy and prayers go out to you, Chummy, during this time of loss of Ashley.

Prayers for Ashley's entire family; such a tragedy and an amazing woman taken far too soon. God's blessings upon you all during this difficult time.

Gone Too Soon
by Anthony Walker
I know you had your dreams in life
like most young people do
But God was watching from above
And had a different plan for you
He knew you were a precious rose
With the golden stem
So he chose you specifically
To leave this place and go with him
He did not wait for warmer weather
Such as May or June
God snatched you from us in a hurry
But still I say it was too soon.

Judy and I, and Brad and Kathy, were fortunate to spend some time in Alaska for the last 4 years fishing with Ashley and Chummy. She brightened the room when she walked in, with her smile and giggle. Judy and I thought of her as family. A piece of our hearts is gone, but she will never be forgotten. She was a one in a million . Chummy, if there is anything you need, a phone call, and it is yours. We will miss Ashley, and so will all of Alaska!
