I was so saddened to hear of Amanda's passing. She was one of the best basketball players I had the privilege of playing against in high school. Man, I hated when she guarded meso scrappy and competitive! But always encouraging those around her and trying to make them the best they could be. It gives me comfort knowing that in her short time on this Earth, she lived a life that many of us can only dream of. May her beautiful soul Rest In Peace.

January 1st my husband and I watched the news here in Chicago and learned of the tragic accident and at the time, they had not released any victims. My husband and I have traveled to Costa Rica twice. We talked for nearly an hour about the devastating crash and our adventures in CR. Then, shortly thereafter, my friend Becky Stieber Buhr texted me and informed me Amanda Geissler was on the plane.
My heart dropped. I was stunned. I didn't know Amanda well. But, we guarded one...

Like many I am devastated with the sad news on Amanda's passing. The news took my breath away for sometime as I tried to fathom what her family and close friends must be feeling. Amanda was a pocket rocket. Full speed. Loved everything she did and made everyone around her feel better and stronger about themselves. Amanda had an infectious character brimming with happiness and fun. I will miss her. This is a tragic loss for all.

Although we didn't know Amanda personally, as fans of the UWEC women's basketball team, we had the privilege of seeing her and her sister Lindsey play in many classic Blugold/Blue Devil games. We were saddened to hear about her passing as we're sure many other WIAC fans were. It was nice to see she was living and enjoying the life of her choosing.

I am really saddened by the passing of Amanda. I only knew Amanda for a short couple of years when she worked as a colleague of mine with Eli Lilly and Company. Amanda was a special young lady who always had a smile to share with anyone in her company, she will be missed by many. My thoughts and prayers are with the Geissler family. It was a true honor to have been able to call Amanda a friend. God Bless.
