With profound heartbreak and unimaginable sorrow, we announce the tragic and untimely passing of our beloved baby girl Ansleigh Marie Boatman who left this world far too soon at just 21 months old. Born on August 26, 2023, Ansleigh brought boundless joy, light, and laughter into every room she entered. She was a perfect, happy baby— playful, full of giggles, and glowing with the purest love imaginable.

Ansleigh was a bright light in the lives of all who knew her. Her innocent spirit, infectious smile, and joyful presence will forever remain etched in the hearts of her family. Though her time with us was far too short, the love she gave and was given will live on eternally.

Annie found pure delight in the simplest joys of childhood. She adored watching "The Princess and the Frog" and "Toy Story", her eyes lighting up whenever her favorite characters appeared on the screen. She giggled at the sight of Mickey Mouse, danced to cheerful tunes, and proudly wore her little LSU gear, already a tiny fan in the making. She loved all the beautiful, innocent things babies are drawn to—bright colors, soft toys, warm cuddles, and the comforting rhythm of music. Her days were filled with wonder, laughter, and love, and her memory will forever be tied to the sweetness and magic she so effortlessly embraced.

She leaves behind her loving and devoted mother Kristen Fulcher who cherished her more than words can express; her three adoring siblings Parker, Blake, and Chase, who loved to laugh and play with her; her heartbroken grandparents Lajuana Kirchner, Charlie Kirchner and wife CeCe, John Boatman and wife Laurie, Andrea Williams and husband Carl; her loving aunts and uncles, Kerri Kirchner and boyfriend Brandon, Madi Williams, Lyla Boatman, Brian Boatman and fiancé Braice, Chanse Boatman, Cayden Williams, and John Kirchner and wife Kelsea, who treasured every moment with her; and a large circle of extended family and friends whose lives she touched deeply in her short time.

In her honor, we will carry her memory forward with tenderness and strength, striving to live in a way that reflects the light she brought into our lives.

Family will receive friends on Tuesday, June 17, 2025 from 5 pm to 8 pm at Pace-Stancil Funeral Home Chapel, Cleveland, Texas. Services will be held at 3:00 pm., Wednesday, June 18, 2025 at First Baptist Church Shepherd, Texas. Interment will follow at Farley Chapel Cemetery in Shepherd, Texas with Bro. Chester Holloway officiating.

Sleep peacefully, sweet angel. You were—and always will be—so deeply loved.
