Amanda was a gentle, warm person who cared deeply about others. I appreciated all her uplifting visits filled with optimism and a genuine smile that made you feel cared for. It was such a wonderful visit the day she showed me her engagement ring--she was so happy to have met her person!

Amanda has departed far too soon and will be missed a great deal. I pray for her everlasting peace and comfort for her loved ones.

Amanda was an extraordinary God-loving woman who entered my life at a pivotal moment after we lost our brother-in-law. I joined a Bible study she led through Northpointe Community Church, not knowing her or anyone else in the group. She warmly welcomed my broken soul, offering a listening ear as I poured out my heart in tears. Together, we grieved, prayed, shared the Gospel, and sang, lifting each other up during a time of immense need. 

Though her passing brings me profound sorrow, I find solace in knowing she is now at peace, made whole, and free from pain. I am confident that we will meet again. May she rest in the radiance of our Lord and Savior, basking in His eternal love.

My dearest Amanda , 

    I was only blessed to have known you for a short time. We became immediate friends. I was thrilled when you became my cousin and may family. I was honored to be a part of your wedding as you married one of my very favorite people. Nathan is more like a brother than a cousin and you became a part of our special bond. Don’t worry. He will not be alone and I will always be there when he needs me. You had such a special light. The brightness you brought to my life will shine on forever. 
I will look for you in the sky on the brightest days. Fly high beautiful angel. 

Love always 
Your cousin Katie.

Not many people were friendly when we first started attending Northpointe 6 years ago, but Amanda was! I enjoyed talking with her and she even invited me to a concert at the Warton Center when her friend couldn’t make it. I remember talking to her last fall when she introduced me to her husband who she had recently wed, she was so happy! I am so sorry her life on this earth ended so soon, but happy I know  she is in the presence of Jesus forevermore!

My heart goes out to her family.
I graduated with Amanda in 2000 and we were in choir all through middle school and Acapella together in high school, as well as all the plays and musicals.  She had a beautiful voice, heart and soul.
I moved to Ohio shortly after graduating high school, but remember what a sweet person she was, funny too.  We laughed a lot together throughout those school years.  I pray for your family during this time, and know she is singing amongst the angels ❤️

Sending deepest condolences to Amanda’s family and many friends. I met her while we were both living at The Quarry. We became fast friends, as Amanda was such a warm and welcoming person. I am thankful for the memories I have with her and am very blessed to have had her in my life. I am sending healing thoughts and prayers to all who loved her.

I am so sorry to hear of Amanda’s passing. I got to know her through her work with the MSU College of Education Alumni Board. She was always kind and funny and warm. Her skill in building relationships was so clear from the first time we met. She will be sorely missed.

So sorry for your loss. Amanda and I were friends all through school and sang in choir together. My fondest memory was one of her bday parties (I want to say 10th?) we got to wear “fancy” dresses and stay at a hotel. It was a big deal and we felt so grown up. She was a genuine person who never wavered from being sweet and kind. Though we were not close and did not talk much after high school I remember the person she was. Condolences to her family.

My prayers to the family. This is heartbreaking news. Amanda was the best of friends growing up. She would drop everything to help you out and always was an ear to talk to. She will be greatly missed by all those who knew her. She loved her family and loved her savior Jesus Christ. We’ll see you again soon. We love your family and will keep them in our prayers.

My sincere sympathy to the family and friends of Amanda Clark.  We worked together at MSU for a short period of time and she was a great colleague and friend.  She was passionate about her work and a deep commitment to her faith and family. Wishing you memories that ease your loss and love that heals your sadness.  Nancy Nyquist

I was deeply saddened to hear of Amanda's passing.  I had the privilege of working with her in CANR and University Advancement, and she was someone who truly made a lasting impression.  Amanda consistently brought a warm, genuine smile that could brighten even the busiest days.  Beyond her kindness, her strong faith was a quiet source of comfort and peace to those around her--it was simply part of who she was.  The news of her loss was shocking, and she will be greatly missed.  At the same time, there is comfort in knowing how deeply she believed and she is now with Jesus.  That assurance brings a sense of peace in the midst of sorrow.  Amanda's presence, spirit, and kindness will not be forgotten.  Peace to your family.

Time and life have a way of stealing away what you always thought would be there.  Amanda taught me many things when we were colleagues and friends at the United Way: a commitment to doing good work, a willingness to go above and beyond, and above all a joy in living. You will be missed dear girl. All my love 💔

My deepest condolences to the family on the passing of Amanda.  I pray that God will surround you with comforting angels during this heart-breaking time.  

I will not be able to attend the celebration of life, but my thoughts and prayers will be with you.

God Bless!
