Amanda was a devoted mother, loving daughter, cherished sister and sister-in-law, adoring granddaughter, caring and fun-loving aunt, treasured niece, and beloved cousin. Her love and care touched every family member in a unique and unforgettable way.
She was preceded in death by her grandfather Raymond McAneney; her grandparents Elke and Rudolph Taeufer; her uncle Dixi Thaler; and her cousin Shawn McAneney.
Amanda took great pride in her work at Amazon, where she was known for her dedication and strong work ethic. She was an incredibly strong person, and everything she did was fueled by her love for her daughter, Zoey Marie Lynn, and her deep desire to be reunited with her. There was not a single day that went by when Amanda didn’t speak about Zoey; her daughter was always on her mind and in her heart. Her courage and determination in facing life’s challenges were a testament to the love she carried within her. In recent years, she devoted herself to her fitness, transforming her life and becoming the strongest and healthiest she had ever been. We were all so proud of her for the strength, discipline, and heart she poured into her recovery and her health.
Her laugh—bright, contagious, and capable of lighting up even the heaviest moments—will echo forever in the hearts of those who loved her. Amanda had a way of making people feel seen and valued, offering her kindness freely and trusting with her whole heart. She gave love without hesitation and welcomed others with a warmth that made you feel instantly safe. The beauty of her spirit, the softness of her heart, and the light she brought into every room will be missed more deeply than words can ever describe. The world is undeniably darker without her light, and her absence leaves a space in our hearts that can never be filled. Amanda was ripped from our lives far too soon, leaving a grief that words cannot fully express.
She is lovingly survived by her daughter Zoey Marie Lynn; her parents, Sabine Fleischmann and Albert McAneney, and her father’s wife, Jennifer; her brother William; her sister Rachel, with her husband Rob and their children Brianna and Jason; her brother Daniel; her sister Michelle and her son Elias; her siblings Rusty and Adeline; her grandmother, Margaret McAneney; her aunt Karen Valentine and her husband Tim; her uncle Mike McAneney (with family); her uncle Thomas Thaler (with family); and her cousins Kevin (with family), Jens (with family), Michael (with family), Gabriella, and Lena. Amanda’s family cherished her deeply, and she held a special place in each of their hearts.
