  1. We are so sorry for your loss. Your family and you are in our thoughts and prayers.

  2. My family first met Amy years ago when she worked for Jerry Oltoff Ins in Lee’s Summit, MO. She has helped us with our insurance needs for many years. Always friendly, professional, and considerate. And she was not ashamed to share her faith in Jesus. We will miss her but know she is in a better place and totally, eternally healed!
    Be assured of our prayers for your family.

  3. I will miss you even though we lived so far apart. We always had good talks and you helped me with an issue more than you will ever know! I hope you and Aunt Lynn are finally together after so long apart. I know you will have plenty to talk about. I miss her every day and I will miss you just as much.
