Amanda was truly a one of a kind mother and stepmother, fiancé, daughter, sister, and friend. She had an amazing personality, both inside and out. She had a very giving and generous personality, but had a firecracker side to her personality as well. She was known for her 'giggle grins;' she would always break into a giggle anytime she grinned.
