Ashley was the first real friend I made when I moved to Scotia. She was in my TaeKwonDo class and we met when I was 11 and I think she was 10. She was so nice to me and I loved hanging out with her. I just found out about her death just a few hours ago and I'm heartbroken. She was too young. She should be alive and happy with her friends right now. R.I.P. Ashley Warrick. I miss u so much </3
