		<description>What an amazing woman!  After I read your beautiful post, I watched her music video and read about her on Amanda's Place; her passion and spirit blazed through me even in those few minutes.  I can only imagine the loss felt by all of you who knew and loved her for so long.

My deepest sympathies.</description>

		<description>Cancer is so unfair. It takes those we love, and takes them much too soon. Heartfelt condolences to you and your family.</description>

		<description>Lisa,
I followed a link to your blog from Amanda's site.  Thank you for  capturing so completely (as well as can be in words) the "Essence of Amanda".  She was an amazing woman and her legacy will live forever.  One beautiful thing in particular I remember about her is the way she could make anyone feel when engaging them in a conversation.  She'd look at you with her full attention, smiling when appropriate and if she had your hand in hers or touched you on the arm or shoulder, you could literally feel the electrical energy passing from her to you.  I'm very sad about her leaving this world.  Thankfully, she will NEVER be forgotten.  She's touched so many, and those whom she touched will forever be better for having known her.</description>
