We are the richer for having her for so long. Condolences to the family and church home.

To the Family,

102. 102 is a blessing. Don't cry tears of sadness but do cry tears of joy. Think of the good times and smile. May The Creator bring you peace during this time.

Marcy, Jan and the entire Amos family:

I am so sorry to hear of Mother Amos' transition. Her sweet spirit will be greatly missed. Praying for the family that God will grant you peace, comfort and strength. May your fond memories bring you joy in the days to come.

If you need anything, I'm only a phone call away. Blessings, love and hugs to you.

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.
