With deep sorrow and heartfelt remembrance, the family and community of Butler, Alabama, announce the passing of Elizabeth Ashley Hubbard. Elizabeth departed this world on August 5, 2025, at the young age of 29. Her sudden loss has left an irreplaceable void in the hearts of her loved ones and all who were blessed to know her.
Elizabeth, affectionately known to many as “Liz,” was the embodiment of warmth, joy, and unwavering compassion. Born and raised in Butler, she was a beloved daughter, sister, friend, and neighbor whose presence could light up any room.
Her kindness knew no bounds, and her vibrant personality left an indelible mark on everyone she encountered. Whether through a smile, a word of encouragement, or a helping hand, Elizabeth brought comfort and hope to others, often when they needed it most.
From an early age, Elizabeth displayed a natural gift for empathy. She was the type of person who remembered birthdays, checked in on friends during hard times, and always made time for those who needed her.
Her deep faith, rooted in love and service, was a guiding force in her life, leading her to treat others with genuine respect and compassion. Elizabeth was also known for her energy and zest for life. She loved music, being outdoors, and spending time with family and friends.
Whether it was a picnic by the water, a spontaneous road trip, or simply sharing stories over coffee, she found joy in the little things and taught others to do the same. Her laughter was infectious, her spirit uplifting, and her heart endlessly giving.
Professionally, Elizabeth was admired for her dedication and integrity. She carried herself with quiet confidence, worked diligently, and brought positivity to every environment she was part of. Colleagues and friends alike appreciated her honesty, strong work ethic, and her ability to bring people together. She was the kind of person who made others feel seen and valued.
Elizabeth’s passing has sent ripples of grief throughout Butler and beyond. She leaves behind a legacy of love and compassion that will never be forgotten. Her family takes solace in the many heartfelt messages and memories shared by those whose lives she touched. These stories—of her generosity, sense of humor, strength, and unwavering support—are testaments to the beautiful soul she was.
She is survived by her loving family, including her parents, siblings, grandparents, extended relatives, and close friends, all of whom are devastated by her loss. They remember her as a constant source of encouragement, a loyal companion, and a beacon of light during life’s darkest moments.
To honor Elizabeth’s life and celebrate her legacy, a visitation will be held on August 9, 2025, at Nanafalia Baptist Church, followed by a funeral service.
Friends, family, and community members are invited to come together to share memories, offer support, and find comfort in the presence of others who were touched by her life. The church, a place of faith and community that Elizabeth dearly loved, will serve as a fitting setting to say goodbye and honor her enduring spirit.
Though Elizabeth’s time with us was far too short, her influence remains immeasurable. Her memory will live on in the stories we tell, the values she instilled, and the love she so freely gave. In her honor, may we strive to live with the same kindness, compassion, and courage that she so effortlessly embodied.
Rest peacefully, Elizabeth. Your light will continue to shine in the hearts of all who knew you.
