Amy Anderson

We are accepting donation for expenses for Amy Anderson.

In October, 2022, Amy was diagnosed with a brain tumor which led to a year-long fight against cancer. Through surgeries, radiation, chemotherapy, and the effects of seizures, Amy was grateful for every additional day with her family. Despite the loss of her physical abilities, her determination was unfailing. She would greet each day with a smile and gratitude to continue her battle against this disease. She fought the hardest fight of her life for each additional day with those she loved. Amy and her family express their gratitude for the many healthcare providers who helped her along the way.

She loved adventures and planning family trips, from camping and outings at the lake, to trips to the beach, she loved spending time with her family. Amy was aware that each day is a gift. She lovingly preserved the memories of her time with family and friends by scrapbooking these moments for herself and others to look back on and enjoy. Following in the footsteps of her mother, Amy had a passion for quilting, always creating new patterns and searching for unique fabrics she created many works of art.
