My sweet Amelia,
You were the sweetest woman. I'll miss your hugs and your back scratches. I'll miss your jokes and your smile. Always in my heart ❤

I remember Amelia and Emil both when I was about 16 years old they were both very loving parents and had a good heart. I met them both as her son Larry and I became best friends. Larry, Linda and Nancy. I got to know but not as well as Larry and Linda they were both closer to my age and we went to Roosevelt High School together. It was tough on those teachers that had to have both of us in the same class together. We both enjoyed a lot of laughs. I remember Amelia selling the Stanley products everything they used was made by Stanley. She was always faithful to her sales job and to her family. Emil and Larry would be the cut ups and Amelia and her girls were more serious. She was a super loving wife and mother and I know that all who knew her could see it with the sparkle in her eyes and a smile on her face. Sadly she will be missed by many. RIP Amelia I know Emil is with you now. May God comfort their children and family members with the fond memories you have of her.
