Hello Amy! I don't know where to start but I'll say I'm glad we met. You were always super cool with me. Thank you for all the laughs, memories and kick butt works in the Hanger Bay on boards USS Carl Vinson. I know you so I'm not going to get all sentimental. Love you!

Dunstan Lowe

Even though your gone and I'm no longer in the Navy, I thought of you and another sailor who left us this veterans day. Your service can't be denied nor will you in every way you touched us. You are truly missed lady.

Amy worked for me at SWRMC 32nd St. Naval Station San Diego, CA from 2006-2008. She was one of the BEST most talented and TOP PERFORMING Sailors I had ever of had the pleasure of having worked with. She ran the Family Advocacy Program (and her peer Nigel Bryant) ran the Drug and Alcohol Abuse Program, and between the two of them, they could have EASILY put me out of a job. I was thinking of them both just now as I made Bryant a Chief, and my next focus was to groom Amy as she was still a year away but then I was transferred. I am DEEPLY saddened to have found her in such a way as I looked both Nigel (who is becoming an Officer at the Academy), and Amy up to see how their lives had turned out/were going.

My sincere apologies and sympathies go out to her Husband Nathan, and Son Mykah, as well as the rest of her family as I am most certain that she is being missed. Amy had a beautiful soul and always came to work with the biggest smile on her face, even when I could have been the "Grumpiest Chief in the world" (mostly due to traffic in the morning), I would say good morning to my folks, and there she would be, behind her desk with the biggest smile "Good Morning Chief!". My thoughts and prayers go out to her entire family.

Hey Amy. I just heard you left us and I am devastated about it. You were always a light to me on the ship, regardless of what was going on. You always had a smile for me, regardless of how you felt that day. There is no way to put into words your influence on me. I will miss you terribly. I pray that your son grows up to be as beautiful a person as you are. I know you will be guiding him from above. I miss you.

May 27 - thinking of - as yesterday (Memorial Day), as the day before (5th month), as everyday - your life - your service to our country - almost half your life ! Thank you mija - stand tall in heaven, head held high, as you smile that beautiful smile. You have much to be proud of yourself for - I know I certainly am. Mama loves you and misses you - but you know that

April 25th - today marks four months that my girl has been gone. Each day is one more day without you mija, which adds to the sadness - but then again, one day closer to reuniting - as I trust we shall, and that brings some comfort. Sending you My Love, Big Hug & Kiss from mama

I remember when you and your boy, your family and some friends camped next to us at Fiddlers Cove a couple of years ago. I remember when how you were such a friendly and outgoing girl with a personality which is hard to find. I pray for peace and understanding for your family. I pray that God takes those whom you touched and reminds them daily of your smile. I pray that you may stand next to Him on high and watch over those who you love and who you served with. Blessed be your family and my heart reaches out to you and your eternal salvation.

Amy you have such a beautiful smile that is filled with so much joy! My heart breaks for you, your family & friends during this difficult time. I pray that God will comfort them and remind them that they will see you again. I know that in my heart that you will be reunited with them. You will be deeply missed, but I pray that we will continue to hold on to the memories and keep them in our hearts until that day.

I'm having a hard time writing this. How do I put into words what Amy means to me? She is one of the best friends I've ever had and I will always love her. We had many wonderful times together and I will keep those memories close to my heart. I have faith in God that I will see her again one day but until then I will always miss her. My prayers are with everyone who loved her, especially Mykah and her mom. Not just now, but always.

So today is the day girlfriend that we must say our final goodbyes to your sweet soul. I say this with a heavy heart that you will truly be missed. I will miss talking to you on Facebook about our "Ink Therapy Sessions". You totally understood about my obsession :). The best facebook time was to see pics of you and bubba. You can tell you truly loved that handsome little boy. You might be gone from this world but you will never be forgotten.

Amy, I will miss all your post on fb, you are so funny and so sweet. You would post so many selfies of that beautiful smile, I will carry those images forever. I will miss you calling home "the dirty dino" I love that, you still make me laugh. I'm gonna miss you girl.

I am still in shock and having difficulty reconciling the loss of such a wonderful person. Amy, we were friends for over 20 years...I remember spending the night at your house, playin gin band together, and meeting your little Mykah. Never was a child so loved. You beamed around him. Your loss is deeply felt. I love you.

Amy you will always be remembered in my life.. You were in inspiration.. A guide.. A true believer in something greater.. You made me into a better person and for that I am forever grateful.. Words can't express what a good person you truly were.. Your smile would make people happy.. Your energy would make people want to do more then the usual routine.. Your dancing would make everyone stop and watch and be happy that you were so happy having such a great time.. A true lover of music.. A true person of life.. I am still having a hard time knowing you are no longer here.. A person I could call and know that the opinion and answer I was seeking would always be answered without judgement but answered from the heart and unbiased.. You will always be remembered by me and everyone who's life you touched.. Thank you Amy for being the friend to me that I needed all the time.. I wish I was there for you more then I was.. I wish I could have not let this happen to such a good person.. Dance and smile in heaven Amy.. We all will always love you and the person you were!!!

Amy. I am sad and in shock. So confused to why u were taken so early. You were beautiful inside and out. U helped me so much, and so many others. Selfishly, giving your time and knowledge to others before yourself. I only knew you professionally but I am greatful for the time I got to know you and spend with you. I send my love to your family and friends. Watch over them with the attention and love you did in the Navy.

Amy..don't know where to begin but I will cherish the few moments I've shared with you...ringing 2012 together on USS Carl Vinson, at John incredibles with our kiddos, celebrating mykah's 4th birthday and many many more...I want you to know that you've inspired me to be a better person and bettering that situation I shared with you about before...rest in heaven my beautiful friend and until we meet again....

Amy, You will be deeply missed. Although we don't know each other well, I feel like I have known you forever. Through the mouths of your family, you are a wonderful, caring and loving person. God has a plan for you past those pearly gates, and that's why you had to leave us here on earth. Although you are deeply missed, you will always be in our hearts.

Mr./Mrs. Hariel Corsair

Your gentle face and patient smile
With sadness we recall,
You had a kindly word for each
And died beloved by all.
The voice is mute and stilled the heart
That loved us well and true,
Ah, bitter was the trial to part
From one so good as you.
You are not forgotten loved one
Nor will you ever be,
As long as life and memory last
We will remember thee.
We miss you now, our hearts are sore,
As time goes by we miss you more.
Your loving smile, your gentle face,
No one can fill your empty place.
