Villagers for Veterans and Habitat for Humanity of Lake-Sumter teamed up for the groundbreaking ceremony of Ashley’s House, 2259 Grove St., Eustis, which will be a transitional group home for female veterans. The house is named in memory of First Lieutenant Ashley White-Stumpf, 24, who was killed by an improvised explosive device during combat operations in Afghanistan in 2011. “Our partnership with Villagers for Veterans on the Ashley’s House project is a way for us to support our female veterans when they need us most,” says Danielle Stroud, CEO of Habitat for Humanity of Lake-Sumter.
