I´ll never forget you Amanda, you were the reason I Graduated and picked myself up when I was feeling down and helped me push myself and challenge myself to get better at math, there´s not enough words in the world to say thank you so much for all you´ve done for all of us. You´ll always be missed and loved, R.I.P Amanda Williams. I finally met the love of my life and we´re getting married soon but I couldn´t of done any of it without you even when I lost my courage and almost all hope. We all love and miss you Amanda. Class of 2014

We knew Amanda several years back when she worked at ups before studying to be a teacher. She helped our family in time of need when my daughter Leslie lost her car and Amanda went out of her way to help her get to work and take my granddaughter to day care. She asked nothing in return, she was the sweetest person and even though its been years since I have seen her I cried upon hearing her passing. Bless all of her family during this very difficult time.

Praying for your family and for God to give you the strength to get through this terrible loss. God chooses his angels at times we can not understand but have to trust.
