Amy L. Holbrook

Holbrook Amy L. Holbrook, departed this world on April 2, 2017 after a fight against cancer that she took to the very end. Born on July 1, 1958, Amy left us too soon, and with the difficult task of keeping her obituary from filling an entire page because of her bright personality, positive outlook and life of good works. The are so many fun stories and great memories; Amy brought love, joy, laughter and support to all she met. She was a beautiful sister, an unparalleled favorite aunt, a friend always there to lean on. She served others and her church, Gateway Community Church, faithfully and always before herself. She received numerous visitors in her final days, the number of which was surprising to her but not to those who knew her. That was Amy: loved by all, but always unassuming. She treasured her church family at Gateway. The outpouring of love from them during her illness was a tribute to how she lived her life. Amy was preceded in death by parents Joseph R. and Wilma S. Holbrook. She is survived by brothers, Steve (Lori) Holbrook and Pat (Diana) Holbrook; and sister, Nancy Holbrook. She was a loving aunt to nephews, Michael Miller, Jacob Holbrook, Kaden Holbrook and Josh Clark; and nieces, Rian Miller, Katie Durborow, Karena Johnson and Danielle Clark. Amy also cherished her great-nephews, Adam and Travis Ryland-Davis, and Tucker Sweeting; and two great-nieces, Abigail Sweeting and Lily Miller. A memorial service will be held at 4 p.m. Saturday, April 15, 2017, at Gateway Community Church, 8794 Big Bear Avenue, Powell, OH. Refreshments will follow. In lieu of flowers, donations may be directed to Gateway Community Church.
