GUESTBOOK
Amy was an awesome friend and I will miss her dearly. She was such a kind soul and a friend that I will never forget. I have many fond memories of having a few beers during the summer with Amy and "Pop" talking on her deck. They were both amazing people and deeply missed; and seeing Beau was always a treat too. Amy is at peace now, not suffering any longer, and I pray that God holds my dear friend in the palm of His hands.-Dan Mitcheli

The world is a less kinder place without you in it. My dear friend, I will miss you in this world but look forward to reuniting in God's time on the other side. Heartfelt condolences to all those who knew and loved Amy. You were my first friend in middle school when I moved to Pennsylvania. You were so kind ,with a smile and shiny braces!
