Missed but in Heaven
Aunt Lona was the kind of aunt we wish everyone could have. She was an unconditional lover of people. Everyone felt welcomed and loved in her home. We will always remember her as a lively, fun and an extremely special person. Her wonderful family lives by her example with the same love of family and togetherness. She has left an indelible mark on this world and will always be in our hearts! Our sincere condolences to all of the family.

Truly Blessed
Aunt Lona was the darling of the Ash family children. She was always smiling and pretty as a picture. Her hair perfect and her glasses classic. My mother’s baby sister and the last of the children of Corbin and Lizzie Ash. The circle is now complete and not broken. They are all home. What a celebration that was when she made it home. She will be dearly missed, but what a blessing to have her all these many years.
Love to her Family, Helen
