Amanda Mae Robinson

Amanda Mae Robinson, a graduating senior of Massachusetts Maritime College, passed away suddenly on April 19, 2023. The legacy that Amanda leaves behind is a beautiful one. Amanda's goal has always been to help those in need. When she joined the Civil Air Patrol in tenth grade, she found not only a group of friends with shared interest, but a multitude of avenues to peruse her dreams of helping others.

When Amanda was diagnosed with narcolepsy, her dreams of being a pilot and serving in the military were no longer a possible. Instead of letting this incredibly challenging medical condition take over her life, Amanda fought on and found her place learning Emergency Management with a minor in Homeland Security and Marine Science, Safety, and Environmental Protection.

During her internships, Amanda worked with refugees and immigrants seeking asylum and safety. She was also a part of the EMS Corp and the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cape Cod and the Islands. Amanda was extremely honored and proud of the work she was doing.

In her 22 years, Amanda accomplished more than I thought imaginable, both professionally and as a loving friend and family member.

As a friend of Amanda's, I am setting up this GoFund Me to help her family with the costs of the wake, funeral, and all other accommodations that must suddenly be made.

As a cadet of the Massachusetts Maritime Colleges Regiment, Amanda truly embodied the spirit of "one hand for the ship, one hand for your shipmate". Let's try to lessen the financial burden for her family so they can focus on grieving at this time.
