Charolette Davis Ashley, 68, of North Little Rock, passed away on April 26, 2013. She was born to the late O'Dell and Vinita Massey Davis on December 30, 1944 in Marion County. She was a member of the Levy Baptist Church. She served on the Board of Easter Seals, was involved with The Arkansas Race for The Cure and she sponsored a Benefit Fundraiser for CARTI. Mrs. Ashley retired from Southwestern Bell where she worked in the business office.

She was a doting wife who adored her husband of 37 years. A loving and attentive mother, who was completely devoted to her parents and grandparents, a thoughtful and trust worthy friend, the mother-in-law extraordinaire, and a fun loving grandmother to her precious grandchildren. She was a 17 year Breast Cancer survivor whose philosophy in life was to meet everything head on. She dealt with all the challenges in life with grace, dignity and determination. She was the epitome of a "southern lady" who will be deeply missed by all those who loved her.

She is survived by her daughter, Candace Ashley Baughman and her husband, Irvin Lynn Baughman; two grandchildren, Hunter Davis Baughman, his fiancé, Andrea Renae Martin and Payton Grace Baughman; one aunt, Peggy Massey Morrison; special friends, Marie Collins, Mindy Baird, Carolyn Wright, Melanie Mayachek, Vicki Washington and Robyn Knight; cousins and extended family members.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, J.D. Ashley, Sr.; grandson, Cole Dorsey Baughman and a host of cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents.
