Amelia Rose Vissers

POTOSI - Amelia Rose Vissers joined the angels in heaven unexpectedly on Tuesday, November 12th, 2024. We welcomed Amelia to the world on May 1st, 2023, at Grant Regional Health Center. Our “peanut” brought a ray of sunshine everywhere she went and to everyone that got to know her. Though small, she always filled our family with joy. Affectionately referred to as “go-go” by her older sisters since she learned to crawl for her desire to “go”, Amelia brought her infectious energy everywhere. Upon mentioning the word “outside” she would bring you your shoes as she squealed with excitement. Her favorite times included playing with her sisters, reading books, taking care of her babies, and relentless exploring. Amelia had a special way of using her charm to get “one more” song during family dance parties. 

Amelia will be greatly missed by her parents: Jeremy and Amanda Vissers; her big sisters: Olivia and Ella; Paternal Grandparents, Jeff and Lori Vissers; Maternal Grandparents: Jeff (Beth) Schulz and Shelly Streckert (Oscar); Paternal Great-Grandparents: Carol Vissers and Michael Corbielle; Maternal Great-Grandmother, Janice Steckert; Aunts and Uncles: Rosie (Craig) Vander Loop, Jennifer (Jim) Grosse, Katie (Jon) Rynish, Kristin (Brian) Diedrich, Leah Schulz (VJ Polkus), Emily (Tyler) Fink; and many cousins: Cooper, Tessa, Betsey, Kathyrn, Luke, Julia, Noah, Raelynn, Hayden, Braysen, Maven, Harlow, Vincent, Oliver, Isla, Zoey, and Tatum.

We wish to thank the Potosi EMS, Grant County Sheriff’s Department, all the staff at Grant Regional Health Center, and Fr. Bernie Rott for all their kindness and compassion during this incredibly difficult time.
