Amy's recent passing just came to my attention. Although she and I had not kept in touch since high school, I continued to think of her often and remember her as my very first friend.

I don't know the circumstances of her death and sadly missed her funeral. Amy was a genuinely funny and kind person. Her curly blond hair and tomboy anticts will remain fond childhood memories for me.

The Spindler family feels your loss, as my brother Frank passed away suddenly (1/99) from a massive coronary. God bless.

To the Blackwell Family,



The 934th Air Wing grieves the lost of Amy. When one of our own is hurting we all wish that we could place things in order. We feel that we are another side of Lynn's family and as such are removed from her loss only by distance. Please know that we are here for support during this time of grieving. God Bless all of you.
