My sincerest condolences to all who love her. Amanda was special and her time was way too short and that is heartbreaking. I was lucky to have known her at a time in my life when I needed a strong friend and she was that undoubtedly. We were very close between 1997-2003 or so. Life got busy and lives took different paths and we lost touch for several years and for that I will always regret not putting more effort into being a better friend. The time we spent together was truly awesome. She was such a great friend at a time when I needed it and additionally her Mom and Dad were equally as special and loving to me. We went to our first concert together Matchbox Twenty and it was so much fun. She was in our wedding as well. And we had so many nights of just hanging out at her house playing games, dancing and enjoying young adulthood toether. I am sad I didn't make more effort to keep up a more intimate friendship after adult life got going crazy with jobs, kids, etc. I know she was a great mother that was abundantly apparent in her photos and sharing online. My heart aches deeply for Juan, her girls and her whole family as I know she was a rock for them all. I hope they find a little comfort in knowing she is joining her Dad and so many other amazing loved ones, but I do know the loss is greater than one can ever truly accept. I send you all hugs and hope for your heart to heal and to find a way to grow stronger from this as she was a strong, beautiful, driven soul and she will be with you to help you if you always try and channel that strength of hers. Bless you all. So many hugs.

Panda came into my life when we were both 14 years old! She was amazing at coloring and we colored the heck out of a Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs color book! She made the best ham and cheese samiches!! We walked home from high school together and stopped for French Fries almost every day!! We were together non stop for the longest time! We grew up and grew apart but found our way back to each other and she was still the best type of a friend you wanted to be around! She would do anything for a friend! She was genuine and beautiful! She met my new friends and they loved her right away! She will be missed, loved and remembered forever in our hearts! I send my love and prayers to all her family and friends! We lost a good one! See you again one day my Panda!
