Obituary for Ashlee Anne Thompson Ashlee Anne Thompson 1976 – 2019 Our beloved daughter, sister, granddaughter and friend fought her last brave battle and succumbed to Glioblastoma surrounded in love on January 4, 2019. She was born on January 27, 1976 at LDS Hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah. She is survived by her mother and loving caregiver, Kathleen Anne Haslam Murray; her brother, Matthew C. Murray (Alli Parkinson); her “Little Monkey,” niece Madilyn Elizabeth Anne Murray; her dear Grandmother, Pauline Anne Haslam; her father, Jeff Thompson; half-sister Alicia; Grandfather, Floyd Thompson, Jr., and many aunts, uncles and cousins who loved her.
She is preceded in death by her Grandfather Thomas J. Haslam and Grandmother Bonnie Thompson. Ashlee was a joy to be around. Everyone loved her from the moment they met her, and she had the most forgiving heart.
She could be feisty and minced no words, but she was kind to everyone. Ashlee was a loyal and beloved friend. She loved children and had hoped to be married and have her own one day.
That wasn’t in the cards for her, but she took it in stride. She was very close to her friends’ children and she loved having played a special role in their lives. Ashlee loved wolves, children, country music, forest green, porcelain dolls she collected for 35 years, and her treasured collection of movies and CDs.
She delighted in bargain hunting and shopping. Traveling was in her blood and she enjoyed many trips over the years. Ashlee suffered in this life immensely since the age of four and bravely chose her own path after her latest diagnosis and elected not to seek continued treatment.
She faced death heroically and without complaint. She was eager to see those she missed waiting to greet her beyond the bounds of this existence. Ashlee was a beacon of love and light to so many and had a heart of gold.
She will be missed beyond words. Until we meet again in our dreams, Lovee ~ Hey Lady Ashlee chose to be cremated and we are respecting her wishes. She will be cremated in a lovely white flowered dress with flower headband, pictures she treasured and her rosary.
There will be a Catholic memorial service and burial later in the spring/summer of 2019. A special thank you to Adagio Hospice for their incredible and excellent care of Ashlee. We love you!
Say not in grief that she is no more but say in thankfulness that she was. A death is not the extinguishing of a light, but the putting out of the lamp because the dawn has come.
