March 12, 2011 at 12:53 pmI was so sorry to hear about the passing of Dee. I remember when Amanda and I were in the Passion Play at Mt. Hope and Dee would be sitting there with such a proud look on her face when Amanda would be singing. She was such a great person. My heart goes out to the family at this time. You are in my thoughts and my prayers.

She is dancing in her Father’s arms now and what joy she is experiencing. We will all be reunited with our loved ones – what a GLORIOUS day that will be.
Much love Amanda – Pam and Pete Jimenez
