For the second week in a row, McIntosh High School is in mourning after losing another student to suicide.

Ashleigh Webster, 17, was found dead in her home late Friday evening, said her father, Bill Webster. A senior at McIntosh, she got good grades and her modeling career was just starting to take off, Mr. Webster said.

Ashleigh had anger issues but not to the point where her parents considered seeking counseling, her father said.

“None of us could have ever seen this coming,” Webster said.
Webster said he feels compelled to tell Ashleigh’s story in the hopes of preventing other teens from committing suicide.

“I just feel like the Lord is calling me to do everything I can to talk to kids to try and stop this from ever happening again,” Webster said.

Ashleigh was one of four daughters Bill Webster and his wife, Victoria had adopted. Her funeral service will be at 2 p.m. Wednesday at Dogwood Church in Tyrone.
