Dear Joel and Maureen,
Our hearts are breaking for you and your family at the loss of your sweet Amanda. I remember meeting her at the reception following Uncle Phil's funeral. Amanda must have been about 10 then, and it was such a delight talking to her. Please know that you are all in our prayers today and always. May our Dear Lord and His Mother of Sorrows wrap their loving arms around you to give you strength, comfort, and peace. God bless you and may the Guardian Angels watch over you always.
Love and prayers,

I worked with Amanda briefly at Newhard Pharmacy. I am shocked and saddened by her death. My prayers are with Amanda, her family, and friends.

Amanda, I never knew you that well but reading all these stories from others makes me wish I had. From the times we've met in passing I always enjoyed your company. I remember hanging out with you at the one Newhard Pharmacy Christmas party and we walked to the turkey hill together. I also remember talking to you the one day when I was on break at the pharmacy and you worked at Northampton Village. And once during midterms you met up with Audra and I at Miller's diner. I'm glad to have these memories though they are far and few in between. To the family I offer nothing but sympathy, strength and hope that you may find solace somewhere through this hardship. May your todays be filled with courage and your tomorrows be filled with bright and fond memories. When it rains, it may pour but at the end of any storm there's always sunshine and a rainbow. <3

Amanda was such a sweet girl. I have't seen her in a year or two, but whenever i would visit my ex at Newhards she would always joke around with me and was always pleasant.

I just can't believe your gone. I remember we went on a 'hell ride' home from the Community Days fair a couple years ago and I got lost trying to find your house.

You are in my prayers

Amanda,

I've seen and thought about you over the years since you worked at Newhard Pharmacy, You have meant a lot to me and my 3 sons - you will never be forgotten. Your love of people and artistic talent we will always remember. When my oldest son Henry was 6 and declared you his girlfriend, you were such a great sport about it and humored him so well. He has never forgotten you - he's 11 now. You will be missed by all and we hope you are at peace. You and your family will be in our prayers. God bless your soul.

To the family of Amanda,
I am unbelievably saddended to hear of the passing of Amanda. The days will be a little darker without her light shining, but each night a new star will be lighting up the heavens...and we'll all know it's Amanda smiling down on us. She was such a delight to know during our years together at NAHS. I cannot say that they were always the best of times, but they certainly were not the darkest, either. To recall those days brings a smile to my face...but it quickly disappears knowing you're not here to share a laugh about your mischief (that I let you get away with sometimes). You will be greatly missed, and my heart and prayers go out to the Voos and Shelly families in this difficult time. It is my hope you find some peace in remembering the good times, and knowing that you all have an angel guiding you through the rest of your days.

I can not ever imagine the lost of a child. I know that Amanada from how you spoke of her would not want to you weep but rejoice in the time that she had. Remember the good, b/c you will see her again. Now you have a "special" angel watching over you!!!!!

July 17, 2012

Dear Maureen & Family:

Just wanted to let you all know that our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time.

May you take comfort in knowing that Amanda is definitely in a safe and loving place and that she is now your personal Angel watching over you all until you all are reunited with her.

May God embrace you all and carry your pain over the next several days, weeks and month so you can all go on remembering Amanda for the loving daughter and sister that she was.

Dear Maureen,

I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful Amanda. She was always a sweet girl. I remember one time when she sought me out when she worked for Newharts and said aren't you Jonathan Morgan's mom? I said yes had a lovely 15 minute conversation with her and she said I remember how sweet you were. That just made my Day. It is difficult when our children grow up and out. I will be praying for you and your family. May God comfort you in your time of need.

Rebecca Fox

July 17, 2012

To all of Amanda's family and friends,
My heart goes out to all of you at this very tragic time. The passing of such a young soul is always very traumatic...the passing of any loved one at any age is but especially so young when she had her whole life ahead of her. My daughter kayla played softball with Amanda and I believe they were in Brownies together but it was so long ago. Amanda was a very beautiful and bright girl. I am so sorry she fell prey to such demons in life. I pray she is at peace now. God bless her and may she fly high with the Angels. My thoughts and prayers are with you all...may God bless you.
