Ashley Dale's family make request for people wanting to pay their respects

The family of Ashley Dale have made a request to those wanting to pay their respects at her funeral.

Ashley was murdered in horrific circumstances when a gunman forced open her front door in Leinster Road, Old Swan, and opened fire "indiscriminately". Merseyside Police say they do not believe the 28-year-old was the intended target, but do believe her address was targeted for reasons detectives are working to establish.

Now, the family of Ashley have issued the details of her funeral through Desmond L. Bannon & Sons Family Funeral Directors. A service will take place on Tuesday, September 20 at The Anglican Cathedral, followed by a private cremation.
