Amy was such an important blessing to me during a very dark time. She provided desperately needed emotional and physical healing after my miscarriage. Amy will remain in my prayers every day for the rest of the life–every single time I remember my baby.

I am sure your heart has been shattered.

Paul and sons,
I was shocked today to learn of Amii’s passing quite randomly. I’m so sorry for your loss! She was taken too soon. You all must be devastated. I enjoyed working with Amii at GRHS and considered her a friend. I wish I had stayed in closer contact w/her and you thru the years. You have my most sincere sympathy. Hold on tight to the good memories. She was a very special woman. Time will lesson the pain of your grief. Take care.

Paul- so sorry to read about Amii’s passing… we were wonderful friends in childhood and lost touch after graduation. We only reconnected once…and she did a Reikii session for me…she spoke of the love for you and the boys… we didnt get another opportunity to meet. I look fondly back on the memories I have and am truly shocked to see she has passed. God bless you in the days ahead as you navigate this change. I do remember you too- as a 1983 Tech HS Graduate…
