I’m sorry to hear about the passing of Amy. She and my dad were married for a bit and I enjoyed the time we got to spend together. I’ll always remember the talks we had when I was still in high school. She’ll be greatly missed.

Virginia, I'm very sorry to hear about your loss. Amy and I were colleagues and friends during the time she taught at Arkansas State University. We shared a love for reading, especially the works of authors like Greg Iles and David Baldacci, and often exchanged books. I missed that contact with her after she moved to central Arkansas. I pray you will find comfort in remembering the special times you shared with her.

Virginia, I am so sad and shocked to learn about Amy’s passing. She accomplished so much after growing up in Girl Scouts in Wynne and I know you are very proud of all she did and the fine person she became.
I regret that after Hendrix we didn’t see much of each other but I know she will be missed! I am so sorry for your loss.
With love and prayers,
