I want to offer condolences to Amy’s family and friends. She was one of my kindergarten children, and I remember her well and with great fondness. She was special as little girl and more special as an adult, I’m sure. Phyllis Lowe Friend

Amy was a blessing to us
Amy was a great help to my daughter Lindsey during her 2nd grade year when she was having trouble with friends. Amy hosted lunch for the group of girls a couple of times so they could easily talk out issues while they ate..it worked! Lindsey, now in 5th, will miss Amy very much!
We pray that the Lord binds up your broken hearts and brings comfort to you during this difficult time. (Isaiah 61:1-3)
No Words…
When my heart is overwhelmed,
Lead me to the ROCK,
That is higher than I
