I just heard of Amy's passing. We were roommates together at Nazareth--I'd never met anyone with as many stories in my life! I can still see her standing on our dorm chair, talking on the phone. All my prayers, love and hugs to you all in this difficult time.

Lisa, Amy just found out this afternoon and told me so I was very upset to see that I missed calling hours. I can't begin to tell you how sorry Gordie and I are that your Amy has passed away. There is no greater sorrow. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
