Amy was a real inspiration to me. I was one of her Counselors at Woodrow Wilson Rehabilitation Center. Amy's quick wit, delightful sense of humor and determination were most inspireing to all who knew her, especially in the knowlege of the heavy burdens Amy carried with her every day. I will miss knowing that her delightful energy is no longer with us.

To The Darling Family:

The Word of God says, "To Be Absent from the Body, is to be Present with the LORD!"

Your sorrow is greater than any we can all understand. However, be comforted in knowing that your precious "Loved One" is now in her NEW Heavenly Body, resting in the MIGHTY ARMS OF HER FATHER GOD AND HER LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST! Also know that Amy is now enjoying her brand new, blemish free, Heavenly Body. You will ALL see one another again one day in Heaven!

Rejoice in the Love and Mercy of God and know that Amy is now very, very happy and healthy!

Your Friends,

Ann Scott - Dep E46
