I have so much to say about a great soul and will forever be my soul sister. The greatest memory I have about Amanda and is we both got matching tattoos that symbolized our sisterhood. I will truly miss her and she will live forever in my heart and mind may god bless her with peace and to be with her parents forever. She will be my forever angel
What a lovely soul. I’ml blessed to have known you.
My name is Ashley. Amanda was my big cousin. She was 13 years older than me. We were talking back and forth up to the days before she passed away. We said our “I love you’s” but I didn’t think it would be our last. I will love and miss her forever.
My last name is St. John I have no idea why it didn’t put all of it
