Because of Mary I was lucky enough to meet Amy and Diane back in 1993 when I rode my bike through Lancaster. I just remember how warm and wonderful both of them were & also so welcoming to me in their home. I can't imagine how many patients and their caregiver's lives she touched throughout her nursing career. ❤️
Extending my deepest sympathy to everyone in the family during this tender time of grief.
What a beautiful woman and spirit. I love the photos you have posted of her.
Take good care of yourselves and may memories help comfort you during this difficult time.❤️

Memories of Amy go back many years when she lived in School Lane Hills, was supportive to Junior League endeavors and as a most capable player on the tennis courts. I remember her as a very fine person and felt privileged to know her. My heartfelt sympathy to Amy's entire family.

Dear Family Members

I have many fond memories of Amy when you lived on Wilson Drive and attended Buchanan School. Your Mom was a quiet standout with everyone who knew her. Her friendship and steadfast help with the Fulton Guild was invaluable to me. Ron and I are sorry for your loss. Fondly, Dee and Ron Smith

I had the pleasure of working with Amy for the time she spent doing home care in Lancaster. She was truly a special lady. We not only shared that desire to help others, we also shared the love of Shitzus. Have thought about her often since she retired and always with pleasant thoughts.
