I remember when Amber lived behind us. All the kids were playing hide and seek. Amber musta been about 4 or 5 yrs old, Noone could find Amber and when called did not come. Police were called and we all searched for her. Police shined a flashlight in her eyes and she came out of Dr. Phifers fire place in his back yard. Prayers to the family.
