Amanda graduated from Watkins Glen High School in 2000, Later she received an associate degree in early childhood education from Finger Lakes Community College and worked in Seneca Falls until her heart condition forced her to stop.

Amanda was a loving wife and a proud mother who extended her love and care to others. She was an adamant craft worker who loved working with her hands.
