In Loving Memory of Amber Lutz

It is with profound sorrow that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of a truly beloved woman, taken from us far too soon at the age of 43 due to unforeseen medical causes. Known for her warm heart, radiant smile, and genuine kindness, she touched the lives of everyone around her. Her vibrant spirit and selfless nature made her a pillar in our community—a friend, a confidante, and a beacon of hope for so many.

In Amber’s final wish, she longed to be laid to rest in her hometown of Steubenville, Ohio, alongside her cherished grandmother—a resting place filled with love, family, and memories of the past. However, fulfilling this heartfelt wish comes with significant challenges. We are faced with the urgent need to cover the costs of transporting her remains from Western North Carolina to Ohio, as well as the mounting expenses of a dignified funeral service.

Perhaps most heart-wrenching of all is the impact on her 15-year-old son, who now faces the overwhelming loss of his beloved mother at such a tender age. As he embarks on a difficult journey of grief and healing, we want nothing more than to honor her memory by ensuring he is surrounded by the love and support he needs during this incredibly challenging time.

We also want to acknowledge her devoted boyfriend, Jason, who played an important part in her life. Jason now faces the difficult task of handling bills that he once shared with her. If our fundraising efforts allow, a portion of the remaining funds will be allocated to assist him with these financial obligations during this trying time.

We are reaching out to you—friends, family, and compassionate strangers—to help us raise funds to cover these crucial expenses. Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward:

• Transporting her remains safely from Western NC to Steubenville, Ohio

• Funeral and memorial service expenses to celebrate her life with dignity

• Providing support for her young son during this period of unimaginable loss

Your generous contribution will not only help us give Amber the farewell she so deeply desired but also provide some solace to a grieving family in desperate need. Together, we can honor her legacy, ensuring that her spirit continues to inspire and comfort those she left behind.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, support, and for helping us give her a final goodbye filled with love and respect. Please share this campaign with others who might be able to help. Your compassion makes all the difference.

In loving memory—forever in our hearts.
