Helping Families Bloom Through Heartbreak
Ashes to Gardens Foundation is a 501c3 Non-Profit dedicated to supporting families navigating the profound loss of a parent. We offer emotional, financial, and practical resources to help surviving partners and children find stability, healing, and hope. Inspired by the life and love of a devoted mother taken too soon, we believe that even in the ashes of loss, the seeds of strength, resilience and renewal can grow.
Ashley’s Story
Ashes to Gardens was founded to honor the life of Ashley Evans, a devoted wife and mother. Ashley was honest to the core, hardworking, joyful, strong, and simple. She was married to the love of her life, Bryce Evans, for nine years, and brought four beautiful children, Cooper, Kinsley, Laney, and Halle, into this world. Ashley was graced so well to be a mother. She laid an incredible foundation for her family before she passed.
Ashley battled Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Myasthenia Gravis. Throughout her journey with these diseases, Ashley faced challenges head on with courage, selflessness, and positivity. In October of 2024, after weeks in the hospital, Ashley was overdosed by a nurse and passed away two days later. Her absence leaves a profound void, but through Ashes to Gardens, our hope is to create a lasting impact that honors Ashley’s life — a life defined by love, unwavering faith, and her devotion to others.
