I had the pleasure of seeing Amy at Coach Catlett's retirement party. We were the only two from her very first team that showed up. I was truly thankful she came. We went through the old gym together, and reminisced about good times. I am so thankful God gave me that opportunity. My heart felt condolences to the family.

My heart goes out to all of Amy's family. I was fortunate to get to know Amy when she was young. She was such a quiet, respectful person. As her teacher, I worked very hard to get her to open up and be more expressive, but she would have none of that. She would just smile and look at me. Yet, when I saw her on the basketball court up in the face of her opponent, I saw another side. She would be chewing gum and working hard to do her job right up in the face of the one she was guarding. Off the court, she would return to that wonderfully sweet-spirited person she was. God bless all of you.
