Amanda Miller Obituary

The world has lost a bright, beautiful, unique woman, and my family has lost a true friend. Alex doesn't understand any of this, but we've told him he has a guardian angel who loves him and will watch over him. Thank you, Amanda, for being such a great friend. We miss you,and love you. Your memory will always have a special place in our hearts.

Amanda has never had trouble telling me what she thought of me. I deeply regret that I have always had trouble expressing how much I thought of her. I am not Amanda's best friend, but in the brief time I have known her she has been mine. She will be in my heart forever.

Amanda was my really good friend and def a one of a kind person. I worked with her for 5 years and took dance with her since we were in grade school. I can see her with her long blond ponytail and twirling her baton. I was thrilled to see her so happy in life with her fiance Joe. He made Amanda the happiest I have ever seen her and thank him for that. I can hear her laugh and her funny comments to me and will never forget those. I will miss her greatly and pray for her family and Joe in this tragic time.

Amanda did not know me. I knew her through the many stories my son related to me about her; they were very good friends. He told me of what she liked to do and of how she thought of matters of the world and heart. So, when Amanda looked at me, she saw someone that she really did not know. But, when I looked at her I saw someone with whom I felt great warmth, and respect, and admiration. The world didn't lose just an ordinary person but a beautiful angel.

I have been thinking the past few days about the interactions I had with Amanda at Prairie Eye Center. She always greeted me with an energetic smile and had great judgement when helping me choose new frames. I will definitely miss her. Many lives were touched in a positive way by her presence. May you find peace and comfort in the precious memories of her.

Mel, I am so sorry for your loss of Amanda. I know how special she was to you and even though she is physically gone her spirit will always be with you. My thoughts go out to you all right now.

I considered amanda not only a co-worker but a friend. We would tease each other every time I came to work in the jacksonville office. I am sad to know that I will never get to make her laugh again. I pray that she knows how much we miss her.

Marge,Melanie,and Sean......I am so sorry for your loss. Marge, being your neighbor for 19 years, I watched Amanda grow from a young girl to a fine young woman. May your memories comfort you.

I never met Amanda, but I stopped to help the night of the accident and I wanted to give my condolences and deepest sympathies to Joe and her family.

I know you don't know me ,but I stopped to help you guys Saturday night. My deepest sympathy with Joe and your family. God bless you.....

This past summer we got to know Amanda at the Bergman family reunion. It was delightful to spend time with her.

My deepest sympathies, prayers and thoughts are with her family.

May God bless you all in this time of sorrow.

We at Big Brothers Big Sisters, we are so very sorry for your loss. Amanda was such a lively and vivacious Big Sister! We was such a great example of someone who always put others first. Our BBBS family will miss her dearly....God bless..

I took dance with Amanda at Tracy's Dance Techniques in grade school. My sympathies and thoughts are with her family.

I had the pleasure to know Amanda when we were in the Ebenezer 4-H club together. She always brought her upbeat personality, smile and wonderful ideas to meetings. She will be missed on this earth for all good she has done here. It is hard to lose such a wonderful young lady so early, but now all we can do is celebrate the life she had here on earth. My deepest condolences.

A great person with a way of touching the heart of anyone around her. Her smile was infectious and she will be missed dearly. Prayers to her family.

I was not only privileged to have called Amanda a friend, but we were sister Girl Scouts as children. Her loss is felt by many that knew her. I had lost touch with her after graduation and was so happy to find her friendship again 2 years ago when her brother Sean was found to be a friend of my partner. Our hearts and prayers go out to the family during this terrible time. God has taken one of his precious angels to join him at his side in Heaven. May that thought bring some peace to everyone left here on Earth.

My heart breaks for the family of Amanda!!! She was the sweetest girl, and I enjoyed being her friend in high school! What a tragic loss for anyone who knew her!!!

I was honored to call Amanda not only my friend but my sister Girl Scout as a child. Her loss is felt by many and my prayers are with her family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to your family. I'll never forget all the swimming, bike riding, and everything we did in our early childhood. She is a wonderful friend and will be missed terribly. Jamie Morath Fisher

My son, Brian, danced with Amanda at Tracy's in Franklin during high school. I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with your family during the difficult times now and ahead.

My deepest sympathies to your family. Amanda was a very good and loving person. She will be missed by your family and by the community.

Dear Melanie and Mrs. Robson, I was so sorry to see the news of Amandaa. I remember her from many years ago when she took dance with my daughters, Allyson and Tiffanie Benjamin. The girls remembered playing with her when she lived across the street from us in Franklin. She loved dance and I remember how much joy she brought to both of you. I know she had a very special relationship with her grandmother. Happy Memories Always, Tammy Benjamin Barton, Allyson, Tiffanie and Bridgett

My heart reaches out to your family. Amanda was such a sweet girl. I worked for the 4-H program while Amanda was a member and will always remember her sweet smile and following her own ideas.

My deepest sympathy. I know that she was a treasured member of your family. Keep the memories of your time together close to your heart. I really enjoyed having Amanda as a dance student. She was always very spirited and passionate about everything she did. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Melanie and Marge.....While Bill and I did not know Amanda well, we are very thankful for her friendship with April, Matt and Alex. Alex loved having Amanda and Joe come to visit. Our prayers are with you now as you go through the days ahead.

My deepest condolences to Amanda's family. I am thankful that I had Amanda as a friend in high school. She was someone who was brave enough to be her own person- to stand tall in who she was and what she believed in. I always wished that I had a bit of that amazing trait for myself in those trying teen years. I am thankful for all of the fun memories I have of hanging out, going to proms, and playing tennis. I pray that all of the awesome memories of Amanda will get you through this very difficult time.

My deepest condolences to your family. I never knew Amanda, but I know that she was a treasured member of your family. I am Donna Cristea (Crawley)s daugher and I live in Virginia with my three sons. I can only imagine what it feels like to lose a loved one. Please know that I am thinking of you and wishing you peace in this painful time. All my prayers, Erika Payne and Sons.

I am proud to have called Amanda my friend. I got to know her when I worked at PEC and she was a great girl with a fantastic sense of humor. I know that Joe made her very happy. I will always admire Amanda for never being afraid to be herself. Our prayers are with you all.
