Ashley Nicole Blatti (Redmond), age 36, of Morris, IL, passed away unexpectedly on December 4, 2025. Survived by her mother Nicole Blatti, her children Nicholas, Mariah, and Cyrena, siblings Stephanie (Alfredo Montoya) Blatti and Alex Hartell, nephews Anthony, Angelo, Arsenio, Armani, and Brayden, niece Alexandrea, grandmothers Maryian Blatti-Sellin and Adrienne Carlson, uncles Doug (Kathy) Blatti Jr. and Jeff Carlson, aunt Kelly (Dave) Andrew, cousins Lexy Moreno and Brie-Anna Andrew. Preceded in death by her father Joe Blatti, brother Tommy Blatti, sweet baby niece Ariel Montoya, cousin Nathan Andrew, grandpa Douglas Blatti Sr., and step-grandpa Robert Sellin.

Ashley was best described as a free spirit. She was a hard worker that pushed beyond limitations in anything she fought for. She was a major music lover, especially when it came to her favorites of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Jelly Roll and Bob Marley. She had a special place in her heart for Disney movies, old and new, and held many heartfelt memories of watching them repeatedly with her children. Ashley was a strong, fierce, and amazing mama bear and friend who left an indelible impression on the world around her. She would not let herself or anyone she considered family to be messed with and had no shame about it. Her loyalty to her people was limitless, and she would have given her last dollar if that is what it would have taken to make sure her loved ones were covered and cared for. She will be remembered for her spontaneity, her loud and proud transparency, and her lifelong legacy as a fighter that never quit. Beloved mother, daughter, sister, granddaughter, auntie, cousin, and friend who will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.

Per Ashley's wishes, no services will be held. Arrangements entrusted to Forsythe Gould Funeral Home, 507 S. State St., Manhattan, IL 60442, 815-478-3321, www.forsythegouldfh.com.
