Ashley was my “family Judge” and he truly made me feel like a family member. I first met Ashley when I was newly appointed, and he made me feel at ease very soon after I met him. Ashley was an extremely kind person who exuded intelligence, a great sense of humour and a great deal of knowledge. He always talked about his family with immense pride and love. Whenever I met him, he always had a smile on his face, and nothing was ever too much trouble for him. Ashley was taken away too soon and I will greatly miss him.
