Ashley Anne Buzzard's Obituary
Ashley, 34, became an angel on Monday, August 3, 2020. We are brokenhearted. We all love her and miss her. She met and grappled with ovarian cancer using stubbornness and grace for almost a year and a half. Her beloved co-workers and friends at The Las Vegas Rainbow Library said that she was gentle and always happy. Little did they know that she sometimes rankled her patient boyfriend, Tiem Nguyen, with requests for medicine or food pick-up at all hours of the day and night. He was her earthbound Guardian Angel. In the doctor's office, she often faced uncertainty alone, due to the restrictions of the Coronavirus, and was very grateful to the doctors and staff at Women's Cancer Center and Valley Hospital Medical Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, for their care and compassion. Confronting her last scan results, she told us that she was not afraid, and that we would always be together. Her Mom learned something new every day from their routine talks. She knew lots of trivia, and worked them into her stories. Her Dad loved her singing. Her Sister was her loving friend and opposite! She loved animals, anime, video games, her friends from Olmsted Falls High School in Ohio, the marching band and choir, the color purple, pho, books, mini cheesecakes, cats, the Zoo, Ren Faires, Comic-cons, and all things Japanese. She received honors from The Ohio State University for her work with Japanese language and culture. Beloved daughter of Robert and Karen (nee Hamski) Buzzard; cherished sister of Brittney Buzzard (Matthew Fehrmann); dear granddaughter of Frank and Betty (nee Hedervary) Hamski, the late Helen (nee Sopata) Hamski, and the late John and Inta (nee Vadzemnieks) Buzzard. Also survived by many loving Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins. Services will be held at Sunset Memorial Park in North Olmsted, Ohio at a future date.
