Marinda Ashman

Marinda is blessed that missionaries found her parents once they immigrated from Germany after WWII. They raised her and her seven siblings in the church where they built a solid foundation in the Gospel. She met her husband at the “good ole BYU”, has been married for 34 years, and raised five children who have found their “person”, which means more great kids to love. They love to spend time together as a family and do pretty much anything but usually it is some sort of physical activity like pickleball, volleyball, basketball, spikeball, golf, etc. Marinda and her husband are educators, so they are always looking for ways to help others become their best selves, and their highlight church calling was serving in the YSA Ward. Hands down the best calling, EVER!
