Amie worked at our jewelry store when she and Richard were newlyweds. I remember, with fondness, her being a hard worker and all the times we laughed together. She was so artistic and loved decorating our windows and showcases. All the customers loved her. She will be missed by everyone whose life she touched. Love and prayers for Richard and her children.

If words could heal broken hearts, we would create a masterpiece for this sweet husband, parents, and four darling children. There are no words. We can pray. We can lift them up in prayer daily but we cannot fill the void left by her passing. They say time heals all wounds but I don't believe that is entirely true. Scars cover wounds and there will always be a scar left in the lives of those who loved her. I believe the scars are there as a reminder of those we've loved and lost. God heals all wounds and He is the Great Comforter. In the days ahead, simply let Him carry you till you can stand and face the dawn again, knowing in your heart that " It's always darkest before the dawn". The worst is behind you now, look forward to seeing her again. Until then, know that you each are loved and He will NOT leave you comfortless.
