My deepest sympathy to the Ashley family. May you find comfort in Gods promise to soon “swallow up death forever and to wipe the tears from all faces.”
(Isaiah 25:8)
thank you so very much for your kind words.. your thoughtfulness is appreciated.
It’s so hard losing a mother. My prayers are said for Mrs. Ashley’s children and grandchildren. I remember her fondly as she and the colonel settled into Bayou Brad yo raise their family. There were such fun times. I remember she loved it when the children had friends over for dinner. I always felt welconed. Rest in peace Bonnie, and you’re now back home with your sweet husband.
