As one of my best friends at Hopkins, Amanda and I shared many good times together. I am so saddened by her passing, and only wish that I had done a better job of keeping in touch. I wish that I lived closer and could attend the memorial service in person. Stephanie, please know that you and your family are in my thoughts.
Dearest Stephanie, Gerry, Steve and Maureen, May God hold each of you in the palm of His hand during this time of sadness and loss. Take comfort in knowing that Amanda is safe at home and back in the loving arms of her parents, my dear friends, Karen and John. Sincerely, Ellen (D\’Agostino) McGuire
