Obituary For Ashley H. Pereira

Ashley H. Pereira, 48, of Warren, RI, passed away unexpectedly at home on Monday, January 29, 2024. A daughter of Steven and Christine (Hulton) Auerswald and the longtime partner of James “Jimmy” Carter, Ashley grew up in East Longmeadow, MA before moving to Warren to attend Roger Williams University where she has remained for the last 25 years.

Ashley was adored by all who knew her. She was known as an extremely personable, generous, kind and very, very funny person. She had a sparkling personality that would light up whatever room she entered and just made everything she was involved with beautiful. Ashley really enjoyed the summertime and spending time on the beach. She would often brag that she lived in the most beautiful place around since she was right by the beach in Warren. She loved being out in the sun; not only at the beach, but also out with her many plants and to enjoy the many sunsets she got to share with the love of her life, her light and pillar of support, Jimmy. Ashley had the gift of brilliance – she would always lift up those around her and would calmly influence others to follow the right path. Most of all, she loved her family, especially her nieces and nephew, and friends. She was an amazing caretaker, cook and shared her vivacious radiance with everyone. She was deeply loved and will be missed by anyone who had the privilege of knowing her.

In addition to her parents, Christine and Steven and the love of her life, Jimmy, Ashley is survived by her brother, Andrew Auerswald of Oakham, MA; her sister, Sara Faria and her husband Leonard of Dighton, MA; her nieces, Zoe Auerswald and Elliana Faria; her nephew, Anthony DeChristoforo; and several aunts and uncles.

Services are with Smith Funeral & Memorial Services, 8 Schoolhouse Rd. Warren, RI, where the family will receive relatives and guests for Visitation on Thursday, February 1, 2024 from 3-6PM. A private burial will be held at a later date. For directions or tributes, please visit: www.wjsmithfh.com.
