There are so many wonderful programs out there dedicated to helping families in need during the Holidays. However, we at Morgan Ashley Studio Salon have something different weighing on our hearts and minds this year. One of our own clients has been battling cancer since she was pregnantwith her second son, Zachary. It has been such a roller coaster for Daryl and Lorie Johnson, but somehow each time they visit us, they always have a big smile on their face and seem to refuse to let their circumstance defeat them. It is so obvious to us what a higher appreciation they have for life and how precious it is. Nothing puts life more in perspective than to see a family who has endured so much, continue to stay positive and not grow bitter. Recently, as if the Johnson family had not been through enough, Lorie’s father passed away very suddenly before Thanksgiving. Since the Johnson’s have been such an inspiration to all of us at Morgan Ashley, we have decided to send them to Disney World to make memories with their children that will, undoubtedly, last a lifetime. The Salon has designated one week in which each stylist will choose a day to dedicate their services to fund the Johnson’s trip. All
proceeds, including tips, throughout the week of December 16- 20 will be donated to make a wish come true for Daryl and Lorie. We will also be accepting donations from anyone who would like to participate. A dedication wall will set up to honor all of whom have so generously donated. We strongly encourage everyone to learn more about Lorie’s story at:

Our Grand Opening was absolutely amazing thanks to all your support. We loved being able to share our special night with you and your families. We would also like to thank all of our models and vendors, who helped make our fashion show possible.
