My name is Stephanie and my beautiful sister Amanda, who was such an amazing force in all of our lives, was called home on 10/06/2025 at 09:29 PM unexpectedly at the age of 41 years old. She is survived by her husband Julio and 3 children: Israel, Ilena, and Isabella. Godchildren (my kids): Genevieve, Victor, Nathaniel, and twins Mia’ana and JJ. Amanda touched so many lives, leaving imprints and memories that will continue to echo through generations. So many will always remember her kindness, compassion, laughter, and sense of humor. She loved children and animals, always teaching, showing patience, and making so many young and old feel loved and part of the family. Whether through her cooking or through her passion for animals, she always made everyone, blood or not, feel like family.

We are trying to raise funds to help pay for the arrangements, moving costs, and needs to help pay for unexpected expenses needed. I appreciate everyone and thank all who are able to help.
