June 14, 1984 – April 7, 2015
Amanda was called to her new home in heaven after a long and courageous battle with cancer. She was at home surrounded by her loving family and her very special friend Kelly Crocker. Amanda leaves behind the love of her life, her son, Jackson John Visser and her faithful dog, Oliver. Cherished daughter of John and Dorothy Visser, best sister ever of Melanie Deschaine , dearly loved by her niece, Olivia Deschaine , nephew, Devin Deschaine and brother-in-law Dustin Deschaine. Amanda will be lovingly remembered by Jackson’s dad, Brent Kornylo, Grandma, Audrey Hummel and Oma, Neltje Visser. She was predeceased by her Grandpa, John Prinzen and her Opa, Hillbrand Visser. Amanda is survived by a very large family of loving aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Amanda’s passion in her life was her son, her family and friends. She will be remembered for her inspiration, positivity, beautiful smile, laughter, infamous dance moves, enthusiasm, strength, faith, and her wonderful quirky personality. As quoted by a friend, “fitting in wasn’t her way, standing out in a crowd, now you’re talking”. Her personality would light up any room she was in and she was convinced that she would be missed so much because she was too much fun. She loved to travel with friends and family to see friends and family around the globe embracing new sights and adventures.
Amanda received wonderful care and support from the Cancer Centre at Lakeridge Health, Princess Margaret Hospital, Lakeridge Palliative Healthcare Team, Partners in Community Nursing, (nice) nurse Nancy Meeke and Pastor Peter Slofstra from Hope Fellowship Church.
