On Wednesday morning, April 6, 2022, the world lost a beautiful ray of sunshine, Ashley Dawn Harris Hughes at the age of 39. She battled her cancer with grace and strength. Ashley's journey in life began in Denton, Texas on January 13, 1983, the daughter of Kevin and Teresa Calabrese Harris.
Ashley grew up in Whitesboro, Texas and was a graduate of the American Heritage Private School. She met the love of her life Justin Hughes on February 6, 2006, and they married on February 19, 2016, in Marietta.
Ashley was full of life and had an infectious smile. She never met a stranger and had a heart of gold. If you ever met Ashley, you would never forget her selfless and caring personality. You would never have known she was having the fight of her life. Ashley had a passion to help not only others, but to rescue animals. She raised different exotic birds including her favorite cockatiels "Turkey" and "Mohawk". Ashley also loved the beauty of all different breeds of horses and enjoyed riding them. She loved traveling with Justin and enjoying their many great adventures. Her favorite thing to do was eat at different venues sampling a variety of foods.
