He was telling me that he had some brushes with death, that he knew he was going to stay alive. He just sounded very optimistic about coming home, seeing me.
— Ashley Ashcraft, widow
Ashcraft had been honored for rescuing two wounded soldiers. He planned to join the Los Angeles Police Department on his return home. He played classical piano. He told his family that, if anything happened to him, they should throw a party, not a wake.

I have so many wonderful memories and I think about him everyday. I feel so bad for all of the other families that have to go through what me and my family did. I love him and always will
