I've known Amber since she was 4 years old. She grew into a confident, positive, joyful, giving young lady. I can't imagine her without a smile. Nor can I imagine the heartbreak of her parents, siblings, and children, and all who knew and loved her.

Amber was always such a light hearted and loving person. I’m blessed to have known her and shared in ministry with her. We were in clergy cluster together for a time and always enjoyed laughing together. We just caught up with one another at Annual Conference this summer. She had a strong faith in Christ and was a wonderful leader. She will be dearly missed.

Mrs Rex was a teacher at our school. She made coming to school so much better. She made our review classes way more interactive and fun. She always came in with a smile on her face and a positive attitude. She was even going the extra mile to get extra certifications to teach us things we were interested in learning. She truly was one of the best instructors I’ve ever had. Going to school will not be the same without her there.
