amanda was such a loving and happy person you will be missed terribly

January 9, 2013

Not only was she beautiful, she was smart,strong, and loyal. Everything you'd want as a friend, sister, mom, aunt, cousin etc. From my understanding she fought with heart, determination and without damnation. That makes all the difference. She never gave up, and neither should you. My heart aches for you all.and for myself. Knowing a beautiful woman was taken from us far too soon. You all have my heart and condolences for your loss. Gone but never to be forgotten!

If dasies grow in Heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Granddaughter's arms and tell her they're from me. Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile. Because remembering her is easy, I do it everyday, but there is an ache within my heart that will never go away. Rest in peace my angel. With much love, Nana Donnell

Of course, it is beyond difficult for someone to lose a family member at any time, but when a parent loses a child it is against the laws of the universe. Your funny and happy recollections may help you try to cope with this heart wrenching situation. Remember your darling Amanda is now watching over you all. Our heartfelt condolences go out to the Alexander family. xo

To Amanda's family... My heart weeps with sympathy for all of you at your great loss! Although I have heard of Amanda many times from her Auntie Susan I have never actually had the opportunity to meet her or get to know her personally... I consider that my loss! I know I would have loved her dearly. From the things I've heard about her I believe she was an angel on earth for her too brief lifetime but Heaven now has a new Angel to watch over all of you. I cannot think of a greater pain than for a parent to have to lay their child to rest or a young child to lose a mother... my heart, my love and my prayers go out especially to her parents and the young daughter she left behind. May your beautiful and blessed memories of her inspire and give you comfort until the day you are all reunited for eternity. Rest in peace Amanda till that day, in God's Hands and in the loving shelter of His Angels' wings. xo

Don't think of her as gone away her journey's just begun..Just think of her as resting from the sorrows and the tears, in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days and years..Just think of her as living in the hearts of those touched..For nothing loved is ever lost and she was loved so much..

To the Alexander Family, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
Words cannot express how deeply saddened we are to have lost such an amazing friend. Amanda was truly one-of-a-kind and I am so happy that we met and got to cross paths in life. Amanda taught me a lot not only at work but in life. She was a strong spirited woman, amazing mother and over all a kind hearted person.
To Mr. and Mrs. Alexander, thank you for creating an angel in disguise. It's truly unfortunate she was taken away from us too soon. I will surely keep the memories of her close to my heart. Rest in peace Amanda. Until we meet again…

I did not personally know Amanda, but was deeply touched by the love of her family and friends. I have often thought of her, Braelyn and family with sadness, but hope that you will all find some solace that she was so obviously deeply loved by you all. I most definitely felt it at the fundraiser. Amanda may be gone, but the impact you have made on people like me will never be forgotten. May your soul fly high and keep your loved ones here safe and comforted.

Amanda was a great example of courage and strength. She never complained and had the attitude of bring it on. She gave all she had and showed her family and friends how to stay positive and strong. I loved her more than I ever knew I could.
Amanda had so much to give and she will again, as one of G-ds Angels above. Bless you my sweet niece.

May your memory forever be a blessing.

Amanda was a beautiful child, mother, sister, grand-child; a special person to so many others and she is gone too soon. Everyone is hurting and will miss her deeply. Terry told me that she was so gracious and courageous throughout her ordeal. I only knew Amanda as a little girl and not the woman she became--you should be proud and honoured to have known and loved her.

Amanda will always be one of the strongest women I'll ever know. She was wise beyond her years and she's taught us lessons we have yet to realize. To be in her prescence over these last few months was an honour and I will forever hold those special moments close to my heart. I will forever wish we could make more. I am so grateful for the time I was able to spend with her. We laughed some and cried some and stared into eachother's blue eyes and enjoyed the easy silence between us. I will treasure those memories. Thank you Amanda for your boundless, endless love. I will not say goodbye; but rather, see ya later Angel Baby. I will love you forever.

My niece Amanda was a young women of great courage. During her battle with cancer she fought it in silence, never complaining always being considerate of others when consideration wasn't called for. I was holding her hand last week while she was having a drink of milk, I said, let me hold the glass for you Sweety...Amanda says to me," I don't want to bother you." I'll never forget you Amanda, I will draw from your strength and courage from this day forward that you so valiantly showed us during your fight to survive in silence. Love Uncle Terry

I dont know much about writing a condolence, because we're all missing Amanda in our own ways, and reliving all of our memories, thinking it's not fair, unjust, and wishing to stop that clock, rewind it even, to say the things we've all wanted to say, or say something else in addition. Take comfort in knowing that her world is grieving with you, and us.. that the support thats here is abundant and true, and if you listen very carefully to the winds, she's saying I love you too.

All my heart and love.
