Publish in a newspaper
Amanda Mykland Cruts was born to Albert and Laura Cruts. She loved the outdoors. Every chance she got she would go for a walk along the stream near her house. She often told the story how a trout swam right next to her and she caught it with her bare hands. Amanda was a beautiful friend who spoke her mind and could talk to anyone.
She attended Blairstown elementary and middle school and North Warren High School. Most recently she worked as an assistant manager at the Dollar General.
She is survived by her fiancé John Goicoechea and son Elijah Albert Goicoechea; Father Albert Cruts, Jr; sister Rebecca Cruts; Uncles, Larry Cruts, Michael Cruts, and Earl Cruts; and Sally Knight, Aunt.
She is predeceased by her Mother Laura Cruts; brother AJ Cruts; grandparents Albert and Alice Cruts, Elsa and Jay Oland; and Uncle David Cruts
A memorial service will be held at First Presbyterian Church of Hackettstown, 298 Main Street Hackettstown, at 11 am on Saturday, November 8, 2025. Donations can be given to the church in honor of Amanda.
