Is she a friend of yours? How did she pass away? It seems like so many young people are having health problems, etc. I'm sorry for the loss.
That is so hard! so young! how did she pass away, I'm always very curious when they are so young like that. If you knew her too- my heart goes you to you too!

Amanda died in a car crash Tuesday. She got cut off by someone and collided with a semi! I teach her whole family tennis. They are some of favorites to teach and this has hit the tennis community pretty hard!
I'm so sorry Tiff. Rick told me about this crash--it was on his way to work I think. I had no idea anyone died though.
What a nice thoughtful post you wrote.
