Like so many who knew her, my life was forever changed the day I met Amy. She taught us all how to live, how to love, with no regard to the consequences. She gave so much to so many, especially to her students, in whom she saw so much promise and potential.
Her legacy lives on in them, while the rest of us who knew Amy find comfort in a life lived to the fullest.

Amy was my chorus teacher at Morrow High School, she was one of my favorite teachers and for the short time we had with her she made an impact that stayed with all of us. She always smiled, and laughed with us, and knew how to make a bad day better. We will miss her. I am truly sorry for the families loss of such an inspiring woman.

I had the priviledge of being one of Amy's students my Freshman and Sophomore years at Morrow High School. She was amazing! So down to earth and full of life! She used to call on me to turn the pages for her at The Performance Arts Center, Morrow, Ga, when she had other concerts to play for. She was an absolute joy to be around. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends.
