I only heard today of Amy's passing. I am so very sorry for her family's loss and for the loss to those at Healthsouth. I was in therapy with Amy for 6 weeks and she was one of the sweetest, most caring people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. She was a bright spot in my day and I am sure in the days of so many others. Sincerely, Nan Rimedio

To Rich, Amy's family, and all her friends at HealthSouth,
Amy will be missed very much!! You are all in our prayers during this difficult time. I would like to thank Amy for all the people she helped. She spent her days helping people who were in pain. She made everyone feel better on the inside and the outside. Amy, the people in your life will miss you forever. May you do what you do best. You are a special gift to all of us!!

Dear Rich,
I was out of town when I heard the news, and am so, so sorry. Words cannot express my deepest sympathies. When I heard the news, I dropped to my knees and said a prayer for you both. Amy was one of my favorite people when she worked at FPL.
You and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Please know you have lots of support, and if you need anything, there are many here for you!

Dear Rich,
Although I didn't get to see Amy as often as I could, this poem reminds me of her kind, gentle and caring nature.
Someone Needs You
Someone needs your smile today,
Your hug, your listening ear.
Someone needs encouragement
And gentle words of cheer.
Someone needs your helping hand,
Your letter....and what's more,
Someone needs your visit
To make their spirits soar.
Someone needs affection
When they are feeling blue.
Listen, someone's calling
For a special friend like you!
by Jacqueline Schiff
Amy is someone so very special to all of us. We hold you in our hearts, Bill and Bobbi Chaney

Rich and Family, my heart felt condolences to all of you. I am so saddened by Amy's passing. She was such a bright spark with those big eyes of hers. What a sweetheart she was. We didn't see each other that often, but when we did, it was like we had seen each other yesterday. I am going to miss her as I know you all will. There will now always be an empty space in all our hearts.
My love to you all and may God give you all, the strength to carry on. With him, all things are possible.
Love, Ingrid
