Amanda Baker You will always be in my memories. We use to sing bible songs together and the worse I sang the louder you would laugh. I know I will recognize your voice when we meet again in heaven.

I had the pleasure of taking care of Amanda at the Laurels of Willow Creek...and I'll never forget her cheerful grin each time I played a Taylor Swift CD for her! God could not have picked a more beautiful angel! May God bless you and bring peace to your hearts during this difficult time.
