In loving memory of our dear daughter Amanda

Amanda was born in Montreal and moved to Kemptville area at the age of six. She attended South Branch Elementary School and then on to North Grenville High School where she would have graduated Grade 12 in 2004. Amanda loved playing her guitar, snowboarding, loved to read, going to movies, shopping and camping. High School was the best time of her life. She not only loved school but was involved with Student Council and the Year Book Committee. Amanda wanted Grade 12 to be a memorable year for herself and her friends. Amanda planned on attending Carleton University to enter the field of Psychology, something she had dreamed of for a long time.

No farewell words were spoken.
No time to say goodbye.
You were gone before we knew it
and only God knows why.
Our hearts still ache with with sadness
and secret tears still flow.
For what it meant to lose you Amanda
no one will ever know.

Love Mom, Dad, Daniel and Lady
