Alicia and Amanda...

I know this isn't going to help ease the pain while dealing with the loss of Amanda, but I just wanted to tell you that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I didn't know Amanda for very long or even very well, but in the short time that she was in Washington I could just tell that we would have became amazing friends in time. Every time that we hung out she was ALWAYS talking about her family! She loved you guys more than words can say and I'm sure you know that. She was such an inspirational woman. I remember texting her time and time again asking when she was coming back here because I couldnt wait to hang out with her again! Looking back, I'm so glad she stayed with you as long as she did! I'm sure it meant the world to her to spend so much time with you before her passing. The one thing I regret is not going to see Amanda while she was in the hospital. Last time I had talked to her she was getting better, I had no idea it had taken a turn for the worst. If there is anything I can do please do not hesitate to ask! Amanda will always be in my heart!
