• message: Sometimes I think God is very greedy for always wanting to take the best for Himself. But then I stop and thank Him for letting us have you for a while to let us know what goodness is like. Just a glimpse... of how dear and sweet a human can be. Thank you for everything, darling girl. Keep watch over all of us. Rosemary

  • message: Loving, beautiful, light-filled ami. you gave me strength and a path so many times over the past 10 years. your poetry always sits out in my home; visitors thumb through it and know it like another corner of my living room. you, who always said the right things with love in your heart and a complete absence of malince, you never complained about your pain. you celebrated your friends and bathed us in happiness. i love you

  • message: Ami... you were one of the most beautiful people I've ever known, and I only knew you through email. Thank you for your friendship, and I hope you have found your way to a better place. - kurt
  • message: Oh Ami... I don't know what to say. Someone here says you never complained about your pain, well, you did that so well, that I never knew you were this ill. And yet, here I find out that we shared similar problems, and I never knew. I so regret not having known you better, as these other lucky people obviously did. I feel like I've lost a great light in my life that I could have had but never realized all that you were. My loss is even greater for this. I hope you will be there, to greet me when I come. My heart is with your Philip, and all of your family and friends. Amarylla... it's a good name for an angel, don't you think? You will be in my thoughts every day of my life. -- cheryl
  • message: I am saddened to find out about Ami's death. She was a customer of mine and bought several of my designs for her fashion doll collection. From our correspondence, I know she was a warm hearted and loving person. She will be missed by everyone whose life she touched, myself included. Vince

  • message: Although we had a business relationship all these years, i've always enjoyed our emails about life and trivial things such as pageants and even brendan fraser! you've truly been an inspiration and a motivator for both marie and i during our years of business. your love for what we do always helped keep us going. i'm sure our small community of collectors are going to miss you tremendously, i know we do..... all our love, nik and marie
  • message: Ami touched our lives to a degree that I can not begin to describe. I knew nothing of her illness so looking back I can now see how the Lord moved his hands gracefully across both of our lives. I see that she was very much the angel to me and my family after I lost my Dad in late '99. I am heartbroken to have heard that the world has lost not only a great mind, but all in all, a great woman. Our prayers are with you Philip, and your families. Much love Angie and Rob Gill (aka Gilly Gals - Columbus, Ohio)
