Beautiful pictures of Amy and family. I know she loved her family very much and was proud of you all. Amy was a very fun and hard working person. Devoted mother grandmother and friend. She always brought a smile to our faces. So sorry for your loss. I know you will be together again some day with our Lord and Savior. May your memories give you peace of your precious mother.
