I am deeply saddened tonight. I just learned of Amy's death and all I can do right now is recall a smart, creative, and sensitive young woman. My sympathies to the Layfield Family who, hopefully, will find comfort knowing that she now is among God's angels in heaven.

Amy will be missed and I know she will be at peace now. I know she was having a hard time but the Lord has her now. May God bless her parents to get thru this and hold her family and friends in the palm of her hand. She was one of our church members at Mulberry St. United Methodist.

So sorry to hear of the passing of your daughter Mrs Layfield, it was so good to see you at the 7th grade class re-union/for Union School,

Know that God will be with you through these trying times, I know he will as I experienced the passing of My Mother in April of this year, and had it not been for God, don't see how I could have made it, just know he is with you all.

Love you
