Amanda had the most beautiful smile that would light up any room she walked into. If you knew Amanda and poured any ounce of love into her, she would pour back into you 10 fold. She lived fully, loved fiercely and would fight hard for those she loved.

With our beloved "Ring Leader" you knew you were in for a good time!

At the end of this battle, what a fighter she was, she was going to do things her way. What speaks the most was how her dearest friends stuck by her.
