A nurse who spent 12 years of her career at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital died suddenly on Christmas Eve after suffering “some kind of seizure”.
Ashley Denness, 34, was in the Whitsunday Islands and spent the morning crabbing before she collapsed and died.
She was rushed to hospital and suffered another seizure on the way, while emergency services tried to revive her for 45 minutes but were unable to do so.
Friends and family quickly created a GoFundMe to bring Ashley’s body home from where she had been on vacation with her partner’s family.

“Ash was a beloved daughter, loving sister and sister-in-law, adored lifelong companion, fun aunt, trusted friend, incredible nurse and colleague, and a loving mother to her fur babies. “She embodied everything you ever needed and wanted in a person,” the GoFundMe said.
“She made everything seem so easy and like home. Ash was that sparkle in every room. She just had that presence about her. An aura that she gave off. You knew she was the epitome of kindness.”
Ashley was described as someone who could make a huge difference to people’s lives, even if they only knew her for five minutes.

She spent 12 years working in the RPA’s neonatal intensive care unit, before recently joining the Newborn and Pediatric Intensive Care Transport Service.
Her work did not go unnoticed, so many donated money to the GoFundMe and talked about their experience with Ashley.
Another said: “I am deeply saddened by the loss of Ashley. Her energy, warmth and dedication to her work left a lasting impression on NETS and she will be deeply missed by all. My deepest condolences to her family and loved ones at this time.”
“Lovely Ash, thank you for helping us get through the scariest time of our lives, being our unexpected trip in the RPA NICU. The world is a poorer place without you. Much love and condolences to his family and friends,” one person said.
