Doris "Charlene" Ashby

Charlene’s family was her world. She spent her life taking care of and unconditionally loving her children, grandchildren and anyone else that walked into her life. She was a loving and accepting woman. She worked as a furniture inspector at High Point Furniture for more than 20 years and retired at the age of 70. She enjoyed reading, crocheting, jewelry making, gardening, talking to her siblings and spending every minute she could with her grandchildren. The only thing stronger than Charlene was her faith and though she will be missed deeply, she would ask that we rejoice and celebrate her life.

Charlene is survived by her son Richard Ashby Jr and daughter Tammy Ashby; grandchildren, April Johnson, Charisma Ashby, Justin Ashby, Isaiah Ashby, Soledad Nieto, Jose Cortes, Estrella Serrato, Yesenia Serrato, Diego Hernandez, Esperanza Martinez, Adan Aguilar, Daniel Castillo, Estela Castillo, and Elizabeth Castillo; great grandchildren, Dallas Casad, Austin Johnson, Jaxson Edwards and Sophia Diaz; four sisters, Frances Shelton, Hilda Rogers, Hazel Overby, Sallie Lawson and one brother, Jackson Arrington. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her daughter Toni Gale Ashby.

A graveside service will be held at Francisco Presbyterian Church Cemetery, 7257 NC Highway 89, Westfield, NC 27053 on Tuesday, May 31, 2022 at 2:00 pm with Chaplain Charlie Patrick, officiating.
