He was a farmer and farmed with his father and grandfather, Glenn Mathias.  Ashton was born on March 12, 1999 in Harrisonburg, VA.  He was the light of his parent's lives every day he was on this earth.  He loved to fish more than anything and he also loved to hunt.  He liked to be a clown and make everyone laugh.  He loved cars and trucks and making lots of noise.  Always the first on the dance floor and the last to leave, he didn't know a stranger and would do anything for anyone. He was a graduate of East Hardy High School, Class of 2017.
