It is with broken hearts we announce the passing of our beloved Ashleigh on Dec. 26, 2024, at 1:26 pm at only 38 yrs old.

She was born on Dec 30, 1985, in Joliet, Illinois at St. Joseph's Hospital and grew up in Zephyrhills, Florida. She learned her dancing abilities at Helen's Baton and Dance Studio and enjoyed cheerleading during her middle school days. She graduated from Zephyrhills High School in 2004. In 2008, she met her husband James at a mutual friend's house and the two became one on March 15, 2014. She was a loving and devoted wife, granddaughter, daughter, sister, aunt, sponsor and friend. Her spirit of love, kindness, generosity, selflessness, patience and peace impacted everyone around her. Ashleigh loved and cherished spending time with family and friends. She was an amazing cook and a master baker who said she loved it so much because it would bring joy, love and a way to be of service to others. Some of Ashleigh's God-given personal accomplishments are 15 years recovered from drugs and alcohol, an AML double transplant cancer warrior and a loving relationship with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. She believed wholeheartedly He was present and picked her up when so much was going wrong.

In lieu of flowers, Ashleigh would ask you to search inside your soul, and ask yourself if what you believe in is going to save your life and set you free?

The world you desire can be won. It exists..it is real..it is possible.. it's yours. - Ayn Rand

We will truly miss and long for her touch, kiss, and love in our lives.

Rest in peace my sweet sweet Ashleigh until we meet again.

Ashleigh is survived by her husband James, her grandmother Betty, her mother Karen, her brother Jim and her sister Jenni.

The funeral service will be held on Dec 31, 2024, at Hodges Family Funeral Home located at 11441 US Highway 301, Dade City, FL 33525.
