I send my prayers to Hans, Joanne, Aaron, and all the other people who Amber was so close to. She always made me smile, and even though she isn't around anymore, i think about her everyday and she STILL puts a smile to my face, everyone and myself will miss her dearly.

I remember the day i met Amber, she was with Chelsea at the apartment buildings were Chelsea and I lived. We were all going over to Steves apartment to hang out and have fun. She was so excited when she got her license, she pulled up in her car, jumped out and told me and chelsea, how she felt so free, and was so happy with the biggest smile on her face. I also worked with Amber, everyone at the Tot Shop was so saddened to here about it, we all cried. Amber will be truely missed and though she is gone, i'm happy i got the chance to meet her, and see her smiling. I'm so sorry for your loss aaron I know how much you will miss her. deepest sympathy goes out to you.

Hans, JoAnn, & Aaron,
We are so very sorry that Amber had to be taken away so soon. We are thinking of you constantly even though we are not there. Amber was so fun for all of us. It was fun having her around whenever she was there, because she liked the boys so much and she was always happy and smiley. We will miss her a ton.

My daughter Katie sat behind Amber in Math class. She got out the year book and showed me her picture. From the news article in the paper and from Katie's friends I can tell that Amber was a very special girl. My heart is breaking for you all, so I wrap my arms around you and ask God to give you comfort and strength. I will continue to pray for understanding in all of this. God be with you.

My deepest sympathy to your family on the loss of such a beautiful young girl. My daughter Jenny was a classmate of Amber's and she said there was never a time Amber didn't have a smile on her face. May your family feel God's presence and comfort.

My hearts go out to the family and friends of Amber. I am deeply saddened that her life on earth was cut so short by this tragic accident. I can't even begin to imagine the pain you must feel. I have two daughters of my own and can't imagine losing them. My hopes for those left behind are that you know she will now live for eternity in heaven with no sickness, pain, or hurt, and, someday, we will all be there with her too. Close your eyes and imagine how much you love Amber and then imagine, if you can, that God loves her so much more........she's in an awesome place.

I'm so sorry for your loss. My son Kyle is in Amber's class and his locker's next to hers. He and his friends are so sad at the loss of such a happy, smiling, lovely girl with so much potential. I hope you can take some comfort in knowing how truly loved she was by those around her, as I know my son and classmates are feeling her watching over them.
