Amanda was such an amazing supervisor, dispatcher, and above all else…an amazing friend. She cared about her dispatchers! I loved working with her and for her. She has left a large void at work that will never be filled again. Her smile could brighten a room. Brianna, Brooklyn, and Brent….your momma was a special woman and I want you to know how much she meant to all of us! She was loved by so many at the S.O. including myself.
Amanda you were a hard worker and I appreciate everything you did when we work together you will be miss my friend

Such an amazing mother and great lady. So many will miss her
She will be missed but not forgotten. She was like a sister to me when we was on the fire department
My heart breaks over your loss. May God wrap his loving arms around you during this very difficult time.
the loss of amanda will forever be felt. she made such a huge impact on so many lives. she was there when we needed a friend, when we needed someone to set us straight at work, and when we just needed laughs. she put up with all of our shenanigans and let us get away with far more than she probably should have. your love and wisdom are so going to be missed. it won’t be the same when i come visit the SO anymore. thanks for always being momma to us when we needed it
