    Her Story

    The Lord took ASHLEY and her unborn baby girl, whom she had already named Evelyn Jane, from us to her Eternal Home suddenly at the young age of 26 on April 18,2026, leaving a giant, painfully empty space in the hearts of her family and friends. Ashley loved intensely and lived fiercely! She was loved by everyone who met her, even briefly! Her smile and presence would immediately flood a room with light! Yet, Ashley “fought battles that some of us will never know with strength, courage, and determination. The battle that meant the most and hurt her the most was not being allowed to raise her son. That battle was breaking her heart and may have contributed to her early departure from our lives.

    Ashley was fun to be with, a playful tease, the life of the party! Her many friends all expressed that life without her was unthinkable. Ashley loved caring for and playing with children: her son, her friends’ children, and all children. And the children were drawn to her and loved her like crazy! Ashley also enjoyed doing arts and crafts and doing theatrical makeup, but her passion was her family, and most especially her little boy, Malakai – to be with him, to play with him, to care for him, and to love him with all the intensity of her heart was truly what Ashley lived for.

    Ashley Marie Vasallo was the 3rd of four children born in Miami, Florida to Jennifer and Esteban Vasallo on June 30,1999. Her red hair, (evident at birth), beautiful blue eyes, and feisty personality were clues of things to come. At the age of 2 she calmly held a parrot on her arm and helped to feed a baby raccoon, and when she was older she had a pet hedgehog.

    Sadly, Ashley also suffered many difficulties in her short life; her parents’ troubled relationship and eventual divorce, a severe, life-threatening case of meningitis at the age of 9, abusive relationships with several men, especially the father of her son; all of which created an agony which was often too much to bear and which she had to find ways to bury in order to keep going on.

    Ashley is survived by her son, Malakai Xavier; her Mother, Jennifer Marie Lyons; her older brother, Steven; older sister, Jessica and her son, Jaxon; younger brother, Christian and his daughter, Bryleigh; and her father, Esteban Vasallo. She is also survived by her grandmother, Rosa Corteguera and her husband Armando Puente; and grandparents William & Charlotte Lyons.

    Ashley’s family is devastated by her loss, yet they know that she trusted in Jesus as her Savior and that He has ended her suffering.

    Her Story

    [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Tia Latrese Brown Scott, was born April 18, 1991, in Columbus, Georgia, the beloved daughter of  Antonio Anderson, Sr. and Cora Brown Anderson.  She entered eternal rest on Sunday, April 26, 2026, at Duke Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina.  Tia lived a life defined by strength, faith, creativity, and an unwavering love for her family and community.

    Tia was educated in the public schools of Richland School District One and was a proud graduate of Lower Richland High School Class of 2009. She further pursued her passion for beauty and self-expression by attending Paul Mitchell the School of Cosmetology. She later dedicated her professional life to public service as a Medicaid Processor with the South Carolina Department of Health & Human Services, where she worked with compassion and diligence to support others.

    On April 7, 2012, Tia was united in marriage to Derrick Lydell Scott. Their marriage was a testament to love, resilience, and unwavering partnership. She was a devoted wife and a loving mot her to her cherished children, Cariah and Trevor, who were the center of her world.

    Tia was a faithful member of New Generation Church, under the leadership of her father, Pastor Tony Anderson, where  she served as a praise and worship leader.  After the retirement of Pastor Anderon, Tia continued her faith journey at The Brook Church. Her voice and spirit touched many hearts, and her worship reflected her deep and abiding faith in God. Even during life’s greatest challenges, her faith remained unshaken.

    Tia Latrese Scott was a woman of remarkable strength, purpose, and undeniable light. In 2015, shortly after the birth of her son Trevor, she was diagnosed with endocarditis, a life-threatening heart infection that led to emergency open-heart surgery. This marked the beginning of a long and courageous medical journey. In 2017, she underwent another surgery to receive a pig valve, and by 2020, after its failure, she endured a triple bypass surgery with a mechanical valve placement. During that time, she also faced complications that resulted in compartment syndrome, requiring a fasciotomy.

    Despite these immense trials, Tia never allowed her circumstances to define her. She continued to live boldly and love deeply. In February 2026, she faced her most critical battle when she went into cardiogenic shock and required advanced life support, including ECMO, LVAD, and RVAD. Her body endured kidney failure, ischemia, and numerous complications, yet she fought with extraordinary courage and grace until the very end.

    Beyond her resilience, Tia was a vibrant and creative spirit. She had a deep passion for photography and cinematography, capturing meaningful moments and telling powerful stories. She expressed empowerment and pride through her T-shirt business and was a proud advocate for uplifting Black lives and strengthening her community. Tia also found joy in dancing, cooking, and bringing laughter into every room she entered. Her presence was a gift to all who knew her.

    She leaves behind to cherish her memory her devoted husband, Derrick L. Scott; her beloved children, Cariah L. Mickens and Trevor L. Scott; her loving parents, Rev. Antonio Anderson, Sr. and Cora Brown Anderson; her caring brother, Antonio Anderson, Jr.; her loving sister, Antoinette Mercedes (William, Sr.) Tresvant; niece and nephew, Zoe and William II Tresvant;  her maternal grandparents, Rudolph and Victoria M. Brown; her uncles, Rudolph (Natalie) Brown, Jr., Charles (Shajuan) Brown and Michael Brown; her aunt, Theresa (Leroy) Tillman; and a host of other loving relatives, dear friends, and all whose lives she touched.

    Though our hearts are heavy with loss, we rejoice in knowing that Tia is now resting peacefully with the Lord. Her legacy of courage, creativity, faith, and love will live on in all who knew her.
