Ashlea Denise Heinz, born April 5, 1991 in King County, WA, departed this life suddenly on
December 22, 2017 at the age of 26. She went to Monroe High School, and graduated from Leaders in Learning with her High School Diploma. Ashlea enjoyed helping others, she wanted to become an advocate for people that could not speak up for themselves like the elderly, children and abused animals. She was known for her big heart, it was common that she would see an animal online – want to help and bring it home then locate its forever home – she was very gifted in matching people with pets. Ashlea was a dedicated caregiver and hospice nurse. Ashlea is survived by her mother Julie Heinz-Bovino and step-father Jason Bovino of Monroe, her father Brian Heinz of Sultan, her brother Travis Heinz and his wife Krista, her daughters Elinor and Celia Crume and their father Nathan Crume, many extended family members, and many, many friends. She was preceded in passing by her daughter Genevieve Crume and her grandmother Karen Christina Bovino. A memorial service honoring Ashlea’s life will be held on January 12, 2018 at 3 PM; at Purdy & Kerr in Monroe, Wa.
