Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • My condoleces to the family. Amy was a friendly type of person. When I first met her she talked to me like she knew me for twenty years. That is the impression I first felt. Very easy to talk to. Amy had a successful career working at Pritchard Machine for 26 years. After that she followed with working at the Bomber Games and at the MTS center in the concessions. She always kept busy. I would also see her in the stores giving out product samples for a promotional company. She liked to clog which is a form of dancing and she belonged to a clogging dance group. She liked to be around people who played musical instrunents. And yes, she was a great Bombers Fan, more so than a Jets Fan , I think..Thank you Amy for all the conversations we had over time, I enjoyed your company. - Posted by: Darcy Smela (Former co-worker, friend) on: Mar 23, 2024

  • Amy was a lovely pleasant to speak with lady whom we recently saw at dances where Wayne played violin. Although we knew her for many years, we didn’t realize until a few years ago, she was Jeff’s Mother, a good friend of our son Billy. Our most sincere condolences to Amy’s children, especially to Jeff. May all the good memories her children have of a lovely Mom, help them through this very sad time in your lives. - Posted by: Kathy Fecio (Friend) on: Mar 09, 2024
