Growing up I would always seem to make friends with someone with a younger sister, who Amy would soon befriend. It was sibling rivalry times two, but we would be inseparable and summers were spent with the four of us conquering the neighborhood. Despite our seemingly endless ability to drive the other crazy, Amy and I will always be brother and sister first. I love you and I am going to miss you, Amy.

Mike - I just learned of Amys passing. I am so so sorry. I dont know if you remember me, but we met several times when Amy still had her massage studio. Of course I loved Amy and our times together. But I cant say enough about how much I admired her. Not just her strength and courage, which were amazing. But her smarts and creativity!! The energy and intellect that she put into the battle that is cancer!! I am going to so miss our conversations and time together, as well sweet little Sophie. Know that she touched many people in such a positive way, beyond her massage skills. Thinking of you and your family with a heavy heart.

There's some people in life you know for a short time, but they have a big impact on your life. Amy was one of those people. I had the pleasure of working with her at Prairie Life Fitness, and always enjoyed our conversations, her wise words, and her positive outlook on the world. My deepest sympathies as you continue to grieve a wonderful lady.
