Dear Vickie, dear Mike,
I am sorry for your terrible loss. We met in 1993-1994 as I stayed at Joe & Lori‘s. So I only knew Amanda as a baby. She was so sweet!
God‘s blessings to you.

Dear Mandi, I really miss you and these past few years have been really hard without one of my cousins that I love dearly. But Winston lives on for you and he's gotten so big! he' s six and is remembering you each and ecery day. I know you're probably hanging out with grandma and grandpa to keep them company:) I miss you so so much and I wished you were still here. We are fighting and will keep fighting to keep your name known. Love you lots,
Lizzie

Message from Mrs. LouAnn Legato

My heart breaks for you all. Such a sweet young mother whose life was cut way to short. Let Winston carry on the wonderful memories of Mandi. I know what it's like to lose a child. I got that phone in the middle of the night. My 30 year old son's car hydroplanes at 45mph and he hit a fence & tree. Dying instantly. There won't be a day that goes by that Mandi won't come to your mind. You will always carry a broken heart for her. It's one day at a time. Remember her smile, her good nature, the wonderful mother she was. God, my family & good friends give me reason to wake up everyday and God, your family & friends will sustain you too. Don't hesitate to ask them if you need them. Now have comfort knowing Mandi is looking down on you. You don't know me but know that I & so many have you in our prayers.

Message from Gay & Billy McFadden

To all of Amanda's family,

I do not know you or Amanda but she looked like a beautiful person who loved her little boy so very much. She did not deserve this terrible tragedy that took her life at such a young age and left Winston without a mother. You are all in my thoughts and prayers at this terrible time in your life. Always remember the memories you shared with Amanda and I know that she is looking down and protecting you all from up there in heaven. God is holding her in his hand and keeping her safe now. We all know that Winston is in safe hands now with Grandma and Grandpa.

Message from John and Heidi Kern and family

Mike and Deb and family,
No words can bring you peace at this unbelievable, tragic time. I don't pretend to know how you feel, nor will I claim you need to stay strong, or count your blessings. Your blessings will be there when you are ready to take that step in the grief process. Your blessings and Mandi's memory will be there, in Winston and your shared life with her. When you are ready. Until then, I pray for you all - for the ability to take those steps, to pull together as the wonderful family I know you are, and to have the willingness to lean on those around you who so wish we could take away the pain you must endure. We will continue to pray for you all. Much love to you.

Message from Monica and Joe Tumeo

Try to remember what our faith teaches us "Life is changed not ended.."

Dear Deb and Mike,
No words can fill the hole in your heart. I am so sorry your family has to endure this sudden, devestating loss of a child, and mother. The joy we felt, when the news said you were safe, was shadowed by the loss of Amanda. One day soon you will see Mandi, in Winstons smile, in his eyes, his laugh. Find the Joy for Winston, as she watches him grow from her heavenly home. Has he shares mamas love with you. May we meet again, forever in the house of the Lord.
