Amber, you will be truly missed. I am so blessed that you were the grandmother to my baby girl. I dont know what we are supposed to do without you!
I keep reflecting on the years I've been blessed to know you. I'm so grateful that we were able to work out our differences and build a beautiful relationship with each other for Kiana. I am so thankful that I had that with you.
Amber was a kind, generous, loving woman. She filled any space she entered with happiness and love. It was contagious. She always had a smile for my daughter, even when she wasn't feeling well. She was an amazing grandmother. So much of who my daughter is and will grow up to become will be thanks to this amazing woman.
My heart is broken, for all of us who knew you.
Janis, Cory, Jake, my sweet kids Kiana and Trae, Rob, Angie, Bobby, the rest of the family and anyone else who loved Amber, I am truly so very sorry for this loss. I loved Amber so very much. My heart goes out to you all. My thoughts and prayers are constantly with you.
With all my love,
