She was the nicest and most free-spirited person I've ever met at JCC and worked with at Tim Horton's. Whenever I saw her she would have a smile on her face and you couldn't help but smile back. Fly high Amber and baby Selena. Prayers out to her family.

So sorry for the family's loss. It's times like these when the loving promises of our heavenly Father can bring us comfort and can soften some of the pain we feel in our hearts. (1 Thessalonians 4:13,14) May God grant you guidance, strength and peace during your time of sorrow.
