Ashley Randel Kingari, 31, died on March 1st, 2025, in Wichita, at her home.

Ashley was born on September 13, 1993, to Clay & Sandy (McFarland) Randel in Manhattan, Kansas.   She attended Arkansas City schools and graduated from ACHS in 2012.   She furthered her education at Cowley College and Wichita State University receiving a bachelor's degree in social work in 2016.    She married Brian Kingari in 2018.   She was a social worker in the Wichita area.

Ashley was very social since she was a child.   She loved being the fun person in the room.   She loved working with children.   The lights of her life were her niece, Brecklynn and nephew, Huxley.   Whether she was playing Barbie's or Minecraft, she loved seeing them smile.    She was very loyal to her friends & family and was the first person to be present in good and bad times.

She was known in the family as AJ.  She developed a nickname for her brother early in her life calling him G-Boy because she could not pronounce his name, Garret.   She had a kind, caring heart which led her to always advocate for the underdog.   She was always looking for the sparkle in life.

She is survived by her mother, Sandy Randel, of Wichita; brother, Garret Randel, Arkansas City; nephew & niece Huxley Lambert and Brecklynn Randel of Arkansas City;  aunts & uncles Judy Powell, Burden; Vickie & Aaron Rush, Winfield, Scott & Sharon McFarland of Winfield; Terry & Laurie Ann McFarland, Youngsville, NC; cousins Chad & Holly McFarland, Olathe; Andy & Kim McFarland, Manhattan; Stefani & David Elliott of Gardner; Quentin Rush, Winfield;  Hayden Powell, Winfield; and Ethan Powell, Arizona.
