Ashley Pauline Arnold Castle, age 40, of Vanceburg, Kentucky, passed away Thursday, October 9, 2025, leaving behind a family who loved her to no end.

Born February 9, 1985, in Trenton, Michigan, Ashley was preceded in death by her grandparents: Pauline and Robert Arnold, as well as Katherine and Watt Hamilton, Arthur Johnson, and cousin, Samantha Arnold.

Those left behind to mourn the loss of Ashley and cherish her memory forever are the love of her life,  Bradley Dyer; her daughters, Violette Castle and Leilah Colvin; her parents, John Arnold (Cynthia) and Deborah Malicki; her siblings, Robert Malicki and Jessica Malicki, John G. (Vanessa)  Arnold, and Jayme (Tyler) Bowling, as well as many other family and friends.

Ashley was a loving daughter, sister, niece, cousin, and companion but above all else, she was a loving mother.

Her greatest joy in life was her family, Bradley, Violette and Leilah, whom she loved with all her heart--A love that will remain forever. In her younger years, she found happiness in sports and laughter shared with lifelong friends. Ashley had the gift of gab and never wanted to hang up the phone without a proper goodbye. Her warmth filled every room, whether through her delicious cooking, her contagious laughter, or the light-hearted jokes and pranks she played to make others smile. Though she is no longer here, Ashley's beautiful spirit lives on in every memory, every shared story, and every heart that loved her.

A celebration of life service will be held at 1 p.m. Friday, October 17, 2025, with Brother Randy Wagoner officiating.  Visitation will be from 11 a.m. Friday until the service at 1 p.m., both at Northcutt & Son Home for Funerals, 400 Fraley Drive, Morehead, KY 40351
