Amy was a bright light in our law school class. Her intelligence, wit, and compassion drew her classmates to her. She is remembered and missed.

To my Dearest Randy,
I was trying to answer an old classmate's question on FB that missed you and wondered where you were. I have checked on you and Amy and of course your precious mom through the year so I was just going to shoot her a quick response but thought I might google you again first. It was not till I learned last night of Amy's passing. I am without words and my heart cannot make any sense of this tragedy. We have been and continue to pray for you, your dad, Sabra and the boys. There is no amount of time which ever separates family. Love you Randy

I'm so sorry, I didn't know... I was in Bloomers musical comedy group with Amy at Penn and she was hilarious! We will all miss her and her quick, quick wit.

To Amy's family -
I am so sorry to hear of this news. It came to me this past summer through Middlesex correspondence. I cared so much about Amy - she and I were incredibly close at Middlesex, and was so appreciative that she came to my wedding in VT in 2001. I had lost touch with her the past several years, and regret that I was not aware of her passing until so much later. I hope this message reaches all of you.

We are going to honor and celebrate Amy and her contributions to Bloomers, Penn's female comedy troupe, at our alumnae meeting on campus on Sat, May 14th, 2016. L'chaim, Amy, and hugs to your family and friends always. Joan Harrison Penn '81 Founder, Bloomers

I just read in the SMU magazine of Amy's passing. She and I were classmates for four years being 2 of 3 individuals who went through the joint JD/MBA program starting in 1988. I am SO sad to learn that she is no longer with us. Rest in peace my friend.

I am so sad to learn of this great, untimely loss. I met Amy through a mutual friend when I visited Penn during my senior year of high school. She stood out to me (and still does) as the funniest person I had ever met -- she was so talented and fun to be around. I was thrilled a few years later to be able to reconnect with her while I was in law school, since she went to the same law school, too. In addition to having a wonderful sense of humor, she was always kind to me. I am sorry we lost touch over time. I know she is missed. I wish her partner and the rest of her family strength and peace through this very difficult loss.

Amy was beloved and cherished as a fellow law school classmate by all who were lucky enough to know her. She made everyone laugh and took the edge off of the everyday stresses of law school. Her laughter and her smile will be missed. With sincerest condolences.
