Ashely's 21st Birthday

Ashley’s family is from Barbados. In their culture the 16th and 21st birthdays hold great significance. At her 16th birthday a celebration was held as she came out into society and was recognized as a woman. Now as she turned 21 another celebration was held to recognize her as an adult.

It was a lot of fun to work with Ashely. She was so enthusiastic, even in her emails. And throughout the night everyone I talked to raved about Ashely and what a sweet, nice, caring individual she was. I have to say that I agree.
