She is survived by her former husband, Donald O. Young and her daughter, Brandy I. Young and preceded in death by her parents, her brother, Scott Osborne and her beloved dog, Fergy. Perpetually young, Ashley was perhaps best known as founder and editor of the Kern County Rental Guide. She was active in the Bakersfield real estate community. She enjoyed researching genealogy, studying law and mentoring women to help them achieve self-fulfillment and independence. We will miss her spirit, grace and very sharp wit. While not religious, our dear friend was spiritual. She was proud of her home and self-sufficiency. It takes a moment to find a special person, an hour to enjoy them, a day to love them, but an entire life to fully appreciate them. We will be celebrating her life at a party in her honor at her home on Saturday, January 1, 2005, at 1:00 p.m. Please bring memories and photos to share. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Hoffmann Hospice in her name. Additional Comments: Volunteer submission - No relation to deceased.
