| Ashley Nicole Romer was born on June 29, 1999. The only girl in a family of boys. She had a full head of black hair, those deep blue eyes of a new baby and a great disposition. Oh how we loved her! She became a friendly, outgoing toddler. Our little snuggle bug, punkin head, tickle bug - she loved to swing high. She got sick in March of 2001 with what we thought was the flu. In April we found out the awful truth - she had a brain tumor. She had surgery which successfully removed the whole tumor. Unfortunately it was a highly malignant tumor called PNET. She started chemotherapy in May. Her three month MRI looked good. We were elated! In September she began to get sick again - deja vu. They repeated the MRI and found the tumor had returned and now had spread throughout her brain and spine. We were sent home with instructions for Hospice care. Death by cancer is horrible, but we're glad she was home with her family beside her when she passed away on October 11, 2001. With us such a short time, in our hearts forever. |

| Childrens brain cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in children yet there are been very little progress in the last 25 years. Our pediatric oncologist, Michael Etzl, M.D., is starting a consortium with doctors from around the state to research childrens brain tumors. They are based at Phoenix Childrens Hospital in Phoenix, AZ. I am doing what I can to raise donations in Ashley's name to find better treatment for this disease. To donate mail to: Phoenix Children's Hospital For Neuro-oncology research In Memory of Ashley Nicole Romer 2701 N. 16th Street, Suite 120 Phoenix, AZ 85006 |

| If I could have a lifetime wish, A dream that would come true, I'd pray to God with all my heart for yesterday and you. A thousand words can't bring you back; I know because I've tried. And neither will a million tears, I know because I've cried. You left behind my broken heart And happy memories too. I never wanted memories, I only wanted you. Author Unknown |

| REMEMBER ME Remember me as I was; Full of life, stomping, playing, happy, talking, laughing, swinging high. Not what I had become: Crying, sick, tired, scared, hairless, lifeless Don't dwell there Remember me as I was - For that is who will greet you in Heaven. Written by Teri Romer/Ashleys mom |
