A6 Hood River News, Saturday, March 7, 2015 O bituaries Paid notices Ashley Beard Ashley Nicole Beard left us way too soon, as a result of rare, in- c u r a b l e brain tu- m o r s. S h e fought an ex- tremely long a n d b r ave battle that most would h ave Ashley Beard n o t been able to bear. She passed away Feb. 19, 2015. Ashley remained positive throughout many surgeries, treatments, set- backs and constant pain. She was and will remain an inspiration to many, demon- strating her absolute faith and indomitable spirit. She is survived by her son, Hayden Bakes (who re- sides in Las Vegas with his father, Gianni Bakes, step- mother Ashley Thompson, two sisters and baby broth- er); parents Megan Schroed- er (Irish) and Tony Beard, along with their spouses Mike Schroeder and Kim Beard; her sisters, Zoe Car- rier and Jackie Boliba; and her brother, Jag Beard. She is also survived by her g randparents, Mike and Christy Irish and Patty Wil- son (Beard); her loving aunts, uncles, cousins and many, many friends who all faithfully followed her jour- ney. Ashley’s lifelong friend, Roxanne Wheeler, was at her side as often as she could be. Ashley was born Oct. 2, 1988, in McMinnville, Ore., and was a resident of Van- couver, Wash., The Dalles, Ore., Astoria, Ore., Young- town, Ariz., and Las Vegas, Nev. She attended Clatsop Community College, where she earned her associate de- gree (while enduring radia- tion and chemotherapy) and was a junior at Portland State University, where she continued to work online to- ward a degree in criminal justice until such time that she was no longer able. A beautiful spirit; a lov- ing mother; a cherished daughter, sister, g rand- daughter; and a beloved friend. In loving memory of Ashley’s fondness to pay it forward, we have estab- lished the Hayden Bakes Savings Account. Contribu- tions may be made in per- son or mailed to: Columbia State Bank, 316 E. Third St., The Dalles, OR 97058. For more information contact Megan, Tony or Grandma Christy. A celebration of Ashley’s life will be held in The Dalles at a later date.
