Amanda was employed by Berkshire Hathaway GUARD Insurance Companies located in Wilkes-Barre as a producer relations advisor. Amanda loved life and lived it to the fullest. To know Amanda (better known as "Mandi") is to know a good time. She loved cooking, making people laugh, yapping, dancing, watching movies, listening to music, PC video gaming, collecting Squishmallows and Killer Klowns trinkets, taking care of her cats, but out of all her loves she loved spending time and making memories with her beloved family and friends.

She was preceded in death by her grandfather, John L. Murphy; great-grandmother, Agnes Seiler; and her great-grandfather, William Seiler.

Surviving is her loving family, parents, Dawn DeAngelis and Jeremy DeAngelis; sister, Taylor Visneski and her husband, Jordan; brother, Brandyn Higgins; niece, Penelope; maternal grandmother, Sandra Murphy; cioci, Shaun Howell and her husband, Bryan; cousins, Geena, Shane and Samantha Howell; special friends, Zachery, Josh and Alexis; and lastly her cats, ("da boys"/ her babies), Oscar and Klondike.

Family and friends are invited to attend her Mass of Christian Burial at 10 a.m. Monday in St. Jude Parish, Mountain Top, with the Rev. Joseph Evanko officiating.

Calling hours will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. Sunday at George A. Strish Inc. Funeral Home, 105 N. Main St., Ashley.

No words can ease the pain of losing someone you love, especially at such a young age. I didn't know Amanda, but my heart hurts for those who knew and loved her. To her dad especially, you were so very kind to my mother and I through a really hard time, that it just breaks our hearts to know how devastating this has to be for you! Please know you're in our thoughts and prayers! If there is anything we can do to help, please let us know!
Love and hugs to family and friends.
Sincerely,
Lisa Bunting and Donna Bunting
