January 14, 2021 1:42 PMWe will all miss Amy's dedication to a better world through her work. When I considered getting more active in the Ohio Society of Association Executives many years ago, I looked to Amy as a mentor and leader who demonstrated why it's important to care about our profession's future and Ohio's future. I listened to her, observed her, sought her advice and admired her contributions to her work, OSAE and greater society. She is a big part of the reason I got involved. She will be missed greatly. Rest easy, Amy!

I will treasure our friendship and the time I was so very fortunate to spend with her the past few years. Rest in heaven, sweet friend.

January 13, 2021 10:41 PMAmy was truly one of a kind. I first met Amy's daughter, Kelly, in high school. We soon became best friends, with Amy not only welcoming me but embracing me like family. We bonded over our love for politics, Seinfeld, and John Candy movies. I felt lucky to be a third-party to Kelly and Amy's exchanges of inside jokes, witty banter, and movie quotes.
My first professional experience was interning for Amy at the Ohio Society of CPAs. She knew that I wanted to go to law school, so she introduced me to the world state & local politics. It was then that Amy became my role model. She was my example of what a professional, successful, and independent woman looked like. Her confidence, intelligence, and wit were unmatched. Whether it was the doorman or an elected official, Amy had the rare ability to connect with people while always staying genuine and true to herself. She continued to provide me with professional and personal advice throughout my academic and legal career.. Above all else, Amy accepted me just the way I am. I'm truly a better person for having known her.
Kelly takes after her mom in so many amazing ways. She has her mom's confidence, intelligence, people skills, and unrivaled humor. I've never seen a mother-daughter bond quite like Kelly and Amy's.. I know that out of all her accomplishments, Amy's proudest achievement was being Kelly's mom.

Her fun-loving spirit and quick wit will live on in our hearts forever. May the beautiful memories of your beloved mom and sister sustain you during this difficult time.
