I am so sorry for your family's loss. I worked with Amy when she worked at the City of Findlay municipal building, and I had the privilege of reconnecting with her again while working at Bluffton University until her retirement. Amy was a kind and beautiful soul. She always had a smile on her face and something positive to say. I have been praying for her. I will continue praying for your family.
