Dedicated to the memory of Alison Ashton
On Friday, 22 May 2020, we said goodbye to one of the brightest and kindest souls on the earth and announce the passing of our mum, Alison Ashton earlier this morning. We wish to honour the life of an amazing and devoted mother, sister, auntie and friend that was always there for anyone and everyone. She lived a long and happy life and she fought, battled and lived right to the end, and now she can finally rest.
As some of you may know, during the last few years of her life, mum struggled with Parkinson’s disease. We are grateful for the hard work and effort of the nurses, staff and doctors who looked after her during these times.
We could talk for hours about the many amazing memories that we, as her family, had with her, but what we would like instead is to help to fight this illness and any small help is appreciated in this. We have developed this fundraising page in her memory to help raise funds for this little known illness and any help would be greatly appreciated.
As current restrictions dictate, we will have a very small graveside ceremony by invitation only, and once the restrictions are reduced, we will organise a celebration of life for her. More details will follow.
She is loved, she is cherished, she is safe, she is at peace, and she will be missed.
We love you mum

Alison always made us feel welcome. We became an extended part of the family when she married Mike Ashton (dad). This gave her a large family instantly and we had lots of fun over the years, especially when we had lots of babies around - Mark and Tom included. Living the closes I still had contact with Alison on a regular basis and this charity is very close to my heart. I know you are no longer in pain and you can be sure that the siblings will look after each other xx

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
