Ashley Renteria, "Angel Face", leaves us here on earth to prepare ourselves to see her in a most glorious way, at the age of 14 on February 21, 1999, while at home, of natural causes.
Presented to us, as another one of God's greatest gifts, on July 23, 1984 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Jose Luis and Julie Adena Renteria.While here on earth she enjoyed participating in many events, especially our Disneyland vacations. She makes a great first impression. Once on a second trip back, even Mickey Mouse recognized her. She loved music and dancing and being included in the dance concerts with her sister. She's enjoyed watching sports with her dad at Hunter High School and even more watching her brother play football at Snow College and Southern Utah University. She was a great fan of the U of U. Just ask the BYU fans next door. She loved the outdoors, especially our Moab trip, which included a hike up to the Delicate Arches.
She once told us she was famous because everyone at school knew who she was. Our thanks to Kennedy Jr. High, Hunter Elementary and even a few of you at Hunter High School. She loved to dine out and loved a good steak. We greatly appreciate those of you who provide a special service to her. She loved to be included and involved. Thanks to many of those who were good enough to make this happen during her short stay with us here on earth. A special thanks to the doctors and nurses at Primary Children's Hospital, especially Dr. Chuck Norlin.
