Obituary
Amber Mary Czech was born on July 11, 2005, in Hutchinson, Minnesota, the daughter of Peter and Angela Czech. She was baptized as an infant on September 4, 2005, and later confirmed in her faith on March 6, 2022.
Amber received her education at St. Anastasia Catholic School from Kindergarten through sixth grade and at Hutchinson Public Schools from seventh grade through her senior year. She graduated from Hutchinson High School with the Class of 2023. Amber continued her education at Alexandria Technical and Community College, graduating with honors on May 8, 2024, earning her diploma in Welding Technology.
Amber earned her first paycheck working for her Uncle Andy at Andy’s Lawn and Snow. She approached every task with dedication, from washing equipment to moving snow. Her attention to detail and natural precision showed in the meticulous mowing patterns she created, leaving many customers delighted with her work. In July of 2024, Amber became employed at Advanced Process Technologies as a welder. She transformed designs into durable, high-performance equipment for food and dairy processors across North America. Amber was passionate and precise about her craft, and said “If you are not going to do it right, don’t do it at all”. Amber could often be found at Hutchinson High School on her Fridays off, helping teach in the welding program and promoting the trades, a role she genuinely loved.
Amber enjoyed spending time outdoors, going to the lake and fishing, Milwaukee Tools, chocolate milk, and playing sports. Basketball was her favorite sport and she was always ready to humble you at a game of Horse. She began playing competitive basketball in third grade for St. Anastasia, continued with Hutchinson Youth Basketball Association through seventh and eighth grade, and went on to play for Hutchinson High School. Amber scored her first varsity points in 2021 and concluded her basketball career in 2023. She also competed in the Elks Club and Knights of Columbus free-throw contests, advancing to the state level in both. At the state level, Amber placed fourth at age ten in the Elks competition, and earned second place at ages 11 and 14 in the Knights of Columbus contests. She was a member of the St. Anastasia Catholic Community serving for mass, attending mass and building her faithful community. Above all, Amber cherished time spent with her family and friends.
Amber passed away on November 11, 2025, at work, at the age of 20 years and four months.
Blessed be her memory.

Mary Hoffman says
Deepest sympathy to all of Amber’s family and friends.
Laura Alexander says
My deepest condolences to Amber’s family, friends and coworkers that are impacted by her loss of life.
No parent should have to worry about their child in a workplace, especially females.
Amber’s life will be remembered and honored for years forward in the hearts of every female that chooses trades.
Let Amber’s life loss be the voice females needed to be heard in a world of men that failed to stand-up against violence soon enough to preserve the faith females have in their skills, desire to remain in trades, and hope that one day men stop gatekeeping jobs.
In the U.S. we speak poorly about Islamist harm against females and hush workplace violence against females and systemic termination of females. We are told to act like these offenses don’t/didn’t happen.
Women don’t need to change. Men do.
May Amber be the flame that ignites change.
Dee Davis says
The construction and welding community is standing with you in this time of sorrow. Your loss is unimaginable and there and words are of little comfort now. Amber’s name and story are being spoken across the country and around the world. The National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC) had an emergency meeting this week to discuss how we can remember Amber and stand with you in this difficult time. Over 300 members from around the world called in and many will be in attendance at her service. We are sending you much love and many prayers. – From NEF Board all the NAWIC sisters
Bradley & Bonnie Hahn says
My prayer is that none of turn from God in our sorrow and grief. Why is asked but not ours to know. We can hate and blame, but we still need to hold fast to the thought that Amber is resting in the arms of our Lord and smiling down on her family and all those who loved her. We only met her once, but she knew her goals. Reading the above comments from those who didn’t her personally but have reached out says so much. May God continue to Bless her and her family and all of us whose hearts are saddened. RIP Amber. God Bless.
Angela Mikkelson says
I read about Amber’s horrific death, and I came here to say I am truly sorry. I cannot imagine what you all are going through. I pray that God looks onto the evil in this world and puts it in its rightful place. There are just no words for this tragedy.
Charita Hampton says
I read about this story today. Praying for her family and all that knew and loved her.
Rachael Smith says
My heart breaks for Amber’s family and friends. I pray that her murderer faces justice under God as well as under our justice system, and I pray that the name Amber Czech is known and spoken in every apprenticeship program, every leadership class, every HR training, and every company that houses a male-dominated area of business to honor her legacy and ensure that the lack of standard operating procedures which allowed that dangerous man within a measurable distance of Amber will be remedied. It won’t bring her back, but I truly believe that from the grave she will save women. She shouldn’t have to. This isn’t fair. But I believe that she will. May the arms of Jesus wrap around you while you navigate this journey. I am so incredibly sorry for your loss.

On behalf of the Sisters in the Brotherhood of Carpenters, we offer our deepest and most heartfelt condolences on the tragic loss of Amber Czech.
Her passing was profoundly painful for us tradeswomen— and the pain of losing her reaches across our entire sisterhood. We mourn not only the loss of her presence but the loss of all the days she should have had ahead of her.
Sisters of the past — we welcome you.
Sisters of the present — we support you.
Sisters of the future — we will not forget you.
Amber now takes her place among the women who built this trade before us — those whose names we speak, and those we hold quietly in our hearts. Her memory becomes part of the foundation we stand on. We carry her with us in every act of courage, every step onto a jobsite, and every moment we choose solidarity over fear.
To her family, friends, and loved ones: we hold you close in our thoughts. We stand with you in sorrow, in outrage, and in grief. Amber will not be forgotten. Her sisters will carry her forward.
Lisa Kennedy says

Amber, We don’t know each other, but I watched You grow up thru St. As Church. You were a mass server. I didn’t realize how much You had grown up.

Steve and Donna (Mey) Woidylla says

Emma Roberts says
I had a single class with Amber my Junior year (her Senior) and I sat across from her some days. She was always so kind to me and made sure I was included when we had to work as a table group. Even though I wasn’t fully close with her, she will still be a part of me and my families thoughts.
Sending all of my love and prayers to family and friends.
Kait says
I am so sorry for your loss. I have been praying for comfort and strength for the family since I heard. Watching the go fund me go up since it was posted, seeing the turn out at Culver’s, and seeing the amount of support from so many women and men in different trades via social media has been unreal. I didn’t know Amber, I work with Pete, but knowing Pete and how good of a person he is.. I have no doubt she was amazing and kind and lit up every room. To the aunts & uncle at Plato, we are here for you. Angie, Pete, and kids, you guys are in my thoughts and prayers. You have a large support system, everyone is here for all of you. Again, I am so sorry for your loss. She was so beautiful.

Nick Goellner says
We didn’t know her personally, but we admire her beautiful contribution to our craft.
Amber represented exactly what we so desperately need in the metalworking nation — A passionate craftsperson who pursued excellence and loved making what matters.
I admired her as I read about her motto “If you are not going to do it right, don’t do it at all.”
I loved reading that she was among the best in her welding class and I pray her memory will inspire more women to follow her lead.
You are in our thoughts and prayers and you have inspired us to challenge the manufacturing community to make sure this is a trade where everyone feels safe and welcome.
Please let us know if there is any way we can support you and carry on Amber’s legacy with our platform.
For Amber, for your family, and for all the women in manufacturing, we want to do it right.

Amber,
You should be safe. You should have gotten up today and wondered what to have for breakfast. You should be making small talk about if we’d have snow before December. You should have had decades of life, you should have gotten gray hair and aches in your back and lived thousands of unremarkable and beautiful days. I never should have learned your name. But please know I won’t forget it.

My heart is broken. I am so sorry for your loss.
