If anybody is familiar with our family, Ashlynn inherited many traits of Grandma Caroline. Never mind that she is the only granddaughter, she loves to go big - just like her grandma. She took those traits, confidence and compassion and decided to put on a bake sale last year benefiting ALS. Many of you contributed to that effort for which we were grateful.
The ALS association in Irvine was so touched with her donation and the work she put on, that she was invited down to Irvine this evening to honor her Grandma at their awards banquet. True to form, following in her Grandma's heritage, she made the family proud this evening.

Sorry for tablecloth in 1/2 the shot. My hands were shaking so bad, I had to balance the camera on the table for stability. It was an honor to associate with many ALS members and all the staff from the Irvine ALS chapter. May the world find a cure for this disease and long live the memory of Grandma Caroline.

Go Ashlyn! She is such an amazing girl! My heart swelled (and maybe some tears) as I watched her share her story.
That is truly beautiful! She looks so happy in the photos. Love that kid.
So beautiful. What a wonderful heart.
Wow! How cool, Ashlynn! We miss you and your awesomeness! High five from Bro. and Sis. Lange!
