    Amber is my second cousin and her Mom, I've always called Sissy was a lifetime bestfriend. The two shared many similarities and a few differences. Love, Strength, Faith, Caring and a Sense of Family Kinship, the same way she treated Friends. Amber had a make yourself at home and the more the merrier style. If she could help you with anything she would at the very least, offer. All the words I've seen here and beyond confirms that she was admired and respected for who she is to everyone, just being her kind self, and incredible human being. She was also a loving partner, sister, daughter, granddaughter, aunt and cousin, and friend that her children will remember as a Supermom! I was so blessed to have know her as an adult, sense I lived out-of-state during her lifetime, but knew I could always come home to Indiana. She was one of the reasons I made a point of doing just that. It's an incredible loss that for all of us that she won't be home the next time we visit, but I know her spirit will be and we all can keep telling our stories about her. When I was last at her home in January she gave me the best hug I've had in a decade. I know God smiled the day he made you and he's smiling now bringing you safely home. Rest in Peace Sweet Amber! I Love You! Your Light Will Be Twinkling Among The Stars Tonight and Every Night! We're going to miss you but your light's gonna keep shining for all of us. Its not the destiny its the journey. Godspeed

    Not only was Amber my cousin but we both were employed by Vertical. She was an amazing, caring person who endured alot of loss with grace and compassion. Her life ended to soon but I am sure that God has welcomed her with open arms.

    I went to school with Amber. We were friends when we were little then life took us in different directions. I followed her posts and life through the years on Facebook.

    My cousin, bonus sister, #1 out of 3 of us raised together like siblings. You were our glue, the light and love that you showed upon all of us will forever be remembered. Thank you for being you, for raising this crew of babies with me. For being the other mother, not just the cousin. Hold my son, hug our Shabba our grand parents, and my Shissy for me, tell my daddy I love him and give him a little nudge.. I got this down here as long as I’m standing. I will love these babies, and do my best to live up to that persimmon pudding you made so well, and to keep this family together. I love you Amba.. save me a spot.

    One of the greatest and sweetest person I've ever had the pleasure of growing up with or knowing my entire life.A true friend, who supported my recovery from drugs and alcohol. Because of her and many others who believed in me, I will celebrate 2 years clean and sober June 4th. Thank you for always having my back and a smile every single time I ever spoke to you. You were and will forever be missed and my friend. My thoughts and prayers are with her entire family at this difficult time. My deepest condolences. Rest In Heaven Amber 💔🙏

    I am so sorry to hear of ambers passing. Her mother and I were friends since early childhood. Amber and my daughter slept in the same crib a short while when they were firstborn. So glad I got to see her not long ago. I know she made her mom very proud! My thoughts and prayers are with all of her family at this time.
