Barbara Joan Ashton-Rowen Obituary
We bid farewell to Barbara Joan Ashton-Rowen (Waterford, Ontario), whose journey of life gracefully concluded on November 5, 2025. Barbara touched countless lives with warmth and kindness, leaving behind cherished memories that will forever echo in hearts. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
As we bid Barbara farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Barbara is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was predeceased by: her stepson Shawn Rowen; and her brother Don Darby. She is survived by: her husband John Rowen; her children, Darby Ashton, Perry Ashton and Doug Ashton; her stepson Mark Rowen (Sonya); her granddaughter Kathryn; and her sister Mouna Sachs.
