On Wednesday, March 10th, loving mother Sandy learned that her precious daughter, Amelia Grace, had passed on to be with The Lord before she ever came into this world.
Amelia was born on March 14th at 11:43 pm into the loving arms of her mother. Sandy was able to spend unrushed and quiet time with her daughter, simultaneously grieving and reveling in her beauty.
In honor of Amelia’s life, please feel free to use this as a means to bless Sandy and her family. The funds will be used for the beautiful memorial service Sandy envisions, creating keepsakes for her to remember Amelia by, and toward resources for healing from this tragic loss. Thank you for your support and donations from the bottom of our hearts.
Please know that prayers for Sandy mean more to her than financial support so please don’t feel obligated. And, as an alternative, please consider donating to the following in Amelia’s name.
Linsey McNew - Bereavement Doula provided an immeasurable amount of support and affirmation for Sandy the entire time she was at the hospital and continues to check on her periodically, providing resources, products, and advice at no cost to Sandy.
