My Friend, Amy

"Amy Jackson, an amazing wife, mom of six young children, daughter, sister and friend has just been diagnosed with Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma a fast spreading form of cancer. Her life has been dedicated to serving others especially youth and the community. There have been so many fund raising events to help her and her family at this devastating time of sadness."

My testimony on giving service has been immensely increased by watching how the service Amy has given, over a lifetime, is being returned ten-fold. It is happening to Amy and her family right before my eyes. Amy has always been involved in helping someone--whether it be her family members, youth, friends, or the community--she has done big things by doing small things and it is being returned more than ten-fold!!! It's amazing!

I've had some great times with Amy whether it's been at birthday lunches with friends, chatting on the phone, bumping at Walmart, lunch at Wildflower Grille with our little boys, being in young women's together, play dates at the park....the list could go on and on! I am honored that Amy IS a part of my life!

Amy, you've changed my life in big ways by doing small and simple things. I LOVE YOU!
