My heart is broken for you to hear about the loss of such a phenomal woman/mother /wife /friend. We will forever remember her beautiful smile and contagious laugh! Love and hugs â¤ï¸ Rachel, Skylar and Jordan
Never forgotten, Wonderful smile, Always so helpful, Always Loved, Rest In Peace Amanda. You are missed!
I was deeply saddened by the news of Amanda's passing. My heart felt condolences to you and your family. Although I only had the pleasure of the 'working' Amanda, she was always 'present' and positive and took everyone's input and needs to heart. All of us at Lafarge will miss her.
A beautiful soul taken too soon. There are so many things left unsaid, so many visits left undone. I wish I could go back in time and change that. You carried your heart on your sleeve and loved with all you had. I wish my son got the privilege of meeting you and being in your company. One day... R.I.P Mandy. May the angels lead you in. Until we meet again.
Deepest condolences and sympathy to Amanda's family and friends. RIP my dear friend I will miss you. I can picture your smiling face and naughty giggle. Amanda always made time for her friends she made them feel special and she loved her family fiercely. Gone way to soon a gem of a lady. May she be with the angels watching over everyone she loved. God Bless her family in their time of sorrow and grief. Take comfort in knowing she was loved by many.
My heartfelt condolences go out to all your loved ones. I'm sorry to hear the tragic news. May God bless you and may you rest in peace Mandy. She was loved by many.
Amanda-- you will be greatly missed by those of us who had the privilege of knowing you. At the Protea Club of London you participated enthusiastically and generously at the Braais. Your sense of humour and ingenuity with making things work will be fondly remembered. ( The bananas and condensed milk dessert when we were short of desserts at one Braai). How we laughed!! Everyone loved your dessert! At this tragic time--our sincere condolences, compassion and sympathy go to your loved ones in Canada and South Africa. Rest in Peace Amanda, Sallie and Alex Hammond
Mandy was an amazing wife and mother, an exceptional employee, a loyal and generous friend, and left us all better for knowing her. She will be sorely missed.
What a tragic and unexpected loss. I am still in disbelief. Amanda was funny and full of life, my deepest sympathy to her family at this very sad time. Another angel has graced the heavens of God
