I never met you but wanted to give my condolences to your family. You were absolutely beautiful and from what I read an even better person. I know you are in Heaven looking down on all your loved ones. You are amazing.

Escribo desde España y acabo de de enterarme de la terrible perdida de Amber hace 14 años por un programa de televisión.
Es increible como son las casualidades, pero mi sobrina María nació el 29 de junio de 2007, la única hija de cuatro hermanas, concretamente de mi hermana melliza.
Me gustaría pensar que el alma de Amber volvió a este mundo en el cuerpecito de nuestra querida María, una niña casi ya de 14 años, alegre, divertida, cariñosa, inteligente, creativa, estudiosa, una persona de una gran humanidad y la alegría de todos la que la conocen.
Puede que me equivoque, pero me gustaría pensar que el espíritu de Amber vive en ella.
¿Quién sabe? Ojalá sea así y haya vuelto para bendecir a nuestra familia y a todos los que la quieren.
Un abrazo enorme para todos a los que Amber inundó de cariño.
Parecía una chica estupenda.
Fuistéis muy afortunados de tenerla en vuestras vidas.

Amber,
I worked with your Uncle Matt at Uhaul when the days of trying to find you came to an end with the most awful news anyone could hear. Words can not express the pain i saw in your Uncle Matt's eyes. My heart goes out to you and your Family as I still think of you all. Fly with the Angels dear one and always be free.

Dear Sweet Amber, This year has been filled with firsts for your mom & dad as well as others that love and miss you so much. Christmas I am sure had to be so very difficult for your Mom & Dad, but you know they have such love for one another, and their combined love for you gives them the strength and determination to do what is right and try to make a difference in this world before they come home to be with you. Memories of you are so comforting... some times they make us cry, but sometimes the tears are from laughter. Becky and I talk and rememinese about you often, some of the memories we laugh at... like when you covered Becky with mud with your quad - ha ha, good times LOL - She was livid and you laughed so hard because you knew that if Becky got dirty or had a hair out of place, she would have a fit... I remember that when you came over to stay one night when your parents were out of town (the first time I had seen you since you were in the fourth grade) and you were standing at the foot of my bed and us girls (you, me, Becky and Brittany)... yep, probably talkin about boyz... and you got your finger caught in the fenial on my bed post... you thought we would never get it out, when we did, we all laughed until we cried. We all miss you so much Amber, we all know that you are with Jesus, but we still miss having you here with us. We all just wish that we could laugh with you and be with you here, because it seems like forever without you here with us. You will never be forgotten... and the prayers for your parents and family will never cease. Your Mommy and Daddy are so special Amber, you must be so very proud of them. Rest in Peace Amber, we will all be home soon to see your smiling face. Mike and Candy, Amber is a very special girl that has truly touched the hearts of so many people. Take comfort in knowing that you are not the only ones that miss her and still think of her every single day. We love you both and pray for you as you finish your tasks here on earth so that one day you will be able to hold Amber in your arms again at heavens gate.

Hess family,
I can't tell you how sorry I'am for your loss. I didn't know amber but Iam a resident of Queen Creek and the pain of losing a beautiful young girl was hard for me to understand. It hurts to see a young lady like amber been taken the way she was. I have a son around her age and I just can't imagine the pain your going through but I hope it comforts you to know that we have you in our prayers and that amber was a family member of Queen Creek and that she'll be missed from this community. Please know that her story has touched many...God Bless and know that we are thinking of her daily.

To the Hess family, I never knew Amber and regardless extend my sincerest condolences to the entire family. I learned of this through a bulletin posted in myspace from the profile of VMGR-352 Raiders, USMC. I used to serve with Amber's uncle, Matthew Hess. Once again my thoughts and prayers will always go to your family with this tragic loss.
scotty MacPhail

i have sat here to write to you, and to try to comfort your Mom and Dad, for a long time. watching a blank screen, not knowing what to say, or who to say it to.
your family and ours hadn't met, until after you were already with our Lord in Heaven. we don't know why things happen the way they do, nor are we able, sometimes to understand it. for this small town, we have lost too many of our young people, before they could begin to start on there own journey, that would have been your life story.
the only way that i am able to share my feeling of loss, is to share it. i know what it is like to have a child taken from this life into the next, into eternal peace. "God only crys for the living, for it is us who are left to carry on." i pray that there is a paradise where we go when our time on earth is through. someone said to me recently,"think about it, there has to be a Heaven, otherwise there would be no reason for us to be here, and none of the things in "life" would make any sense!" so i am sorry that i was not able to know you in the mortal world, but we will meet one day in the next life.
so give a big hug to Moura, Nathan Martins(USN) Sarah,Tom and Shelly,Keith W.my Mom and my brother Mac, and our Daughter Alex. if you could do that favor for me, have a hug waiting for me too. time is a cosmic blink of an eye, but the pain of our losses, is testomoney to how much you are loved. it is better to have loved and lost, than never having known love at all. though we may never know, in this lifetime, the reasons why.
Respectfully, the MacPhail family,Queen Creek az.

Every morning I wake up and the first thing I see is your smiling face staring at me from a picture that I have placed next to my bed. Your face has always been so precious to me. Your smile, your eyes, your sweet little nose; every square inch I have touched and memorized since your birth. It is so hard to start each day with a part of our sole missing. There is a hole in our heart that I am sure time will heal and fill with memories until we see each other again. But until we do, at least I have your smile staring at me everyday. Goodnight my little lovebug, my sweet, sweet, sunshine, my oh so precious one.
I will see you in the morning.

I was not able to sign the guest book tonite at the funeral but I was touched by a ray of Amber's sunshine as God's tears fell upon her ashes as she was being moved by Father Dan from the church to the arms of her mother and father.
I will never forget the eloquent words and the deep feelings of love as expressed from the mother, father, and family of a girl I've never met but felt so touched by her presence as if she was truly illuminating the way for those of us left behind stumbling around in the dark. Her life has blessed mine. Thank you Amber, and Bless you Candy and Mike.

Amber LeAnn Hess will always be in my heart. She is and always has been an angel. The loss of a good friend like Amber has opened my eyes. Life is such a beautiful thing. Delicate. I have been taking even the simplest things in life for granted. Friendship, family, and life. She will be remembered. She has touched everyone. I miss her dearly and hope one day I will see her again.
Candy and Michael,
You both have been such wonderful parents. You two have always cared for not only Amber but her friends as well. I pray that God always watches over you both. God Bless you Candy and Michael.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

As a mom who has also lost a child, I know how much pain you are in right now. It's much too soon now, but eventually, you'll be able to smile at the very things that make Amber who she is. She is still your child, and she is now in Heaven instead of being here on Earth.Today I will light a candle for Miss Amber and say a prayer for her as well as her family. My heart goes out to you.

Last night a friend of mine was shot to death in a hotel room in front a room of his friend. I sit here tonight and feel that there are no words that will take away the pain from this kind of loss. So senseless, and barbaric. I just wanted to you to know that I will pray for Amber, along with my prayers for Ian. I hope that time speeds to heal you pain, and that the memories of amber, help to return your smile.

Dear Parents of Amber,
Please accept my sincere sympathy in the tragic loss of your daughter. I am a friend of Sara Clewell who is here in Pennsylvania with me at this time. She shared the devastating news with me and kept me informed daily. Knowing many people in your family, I feel a connection to you. I cannot imagine how you feel or understand the reasoning behind such a senseless deed. I pray for your healing. Amber is surrounded by angels who will watch over her. May God bless you and give you strength.

My heart goes out to the family. I didn't know her as much as I would have wanted to, but I know she was a great person. When I first started attending Coolidge High, she was one of the nicest people I had met there. She had the biggest heart and big dreams. I pray that her parents will be alright, and soon be able to get past this. Though I cannot even IMAGINE what they are going through. I send my love and sympathy to the family, and wish them the best in all of their life's endeavors. May Amber's soul find peace, and her memories live on through us who have known her.

My heart hurts for your family. Candy, please stay strong, and I hope you and your family find some peace. I pray for you each night.I am a mother of 4, and I have a 15 yr old daughter Cssandra Wilson, that knew Amber, and went to high school with her. This all happened very close to me, as I live 2 house away from one of the boys. My daughter and I came to Amber's vigil at her house last Wednesday night, and we hugged Candy tight as her heart was broken. At that moment, I wish I could have taken all her pain away, and I cried with her. Amber was an angel sent to us for a short time, to bring joy to all she met and knew. She will be missed by many and will never be forgotten. She has touched so many lives. A mother should never have to go thru what your are, and no one will ever know what you shared with your daughter, but she will live on not only in Heaven, but all around you.I hope you will find some comfort in this message.

You hear about these things happening to people everywhere, but to have it happen so close to home really puts it in perspective. Amber is everyones child. I see her smiling face in my own childrens faces. My sympathy goes to the Hess family during this unbearable time. May you find strength to make it through and keep her memory alive.

To the Hess family: As a parent of a teenage daughter, I prayed for her safe return. Then I cried with when she was found. I can't imagine what your hearts must feel. No parent should ever have to experience that kind of pain. I began to look for words of comfort, but nothing comes to mind. I read through many of the entries here, we are all shocked and grief stricken. She has touched so many lives. Rest in Peace Amber, the people of the Valley pray for you and your family

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
