The three great loves in Amber's life were her children, and she cherished spending time with them more than anything. Regardless of circumstances or distance between them, they were her inspiration to overcome challenges and struggles and were the twinkling bright stars in her universe.

She loved writing, drawing, spending time with friends and family, going to the beach, and being in the water, whether pool, creek, or ocean. Amber always looked and found something good regardless of the circumstances.
In Amber's school years, she was extremely active, competitive, adventurous, and determined. Always willing to try everything and every sport, she participated in music, arts and crafts, Girl Scouts, playing the clarinet, piano, guitar, running track, hurdles, and long jumps, where she earned medals. Amber studied Taekwondo and was a brown belt earning her way to black belt, competing in tournaments.
Amber received awards in a few writing competitions. She was cast in an independent film and modeled for Fashion Bug. Always willing to help others, she volunteered with various organizations. She loved animals and would rescue anything she could catch and bring home. Amber loved to see new sites, explore historical locations and our yearly family beach vacations.
