Remembering Amy Adams
Recently I received news of the death of Amy Adams, a junior here at Muskingum. Though I never knew her very well, my interactions with her, albeit limited, were nonetheless memorable.
Every Sunday when I would walk into the Kelly Coffeehouse for Mass, she would always be there with a smile on her face, ready and willing to help out in any capacity. I myself simply wanted to get through the service so I could back to dorm room and goof around before starting on my homework much later in the evening. Despite my grumblings, I never saw her once complain, gripe, or beg for more than any had ever given. Instead, she sang along with the psalms, and offered her services for any sort of need in our small congregation with her steadfast piety and humility.
To Amy’s family, I would just like to say Amy was an amazing person, and easily a role model for anyone, Christian or otherwise. She certainly inspired me to give more and be more than any inspirational speaker or story ever had. You will be in my thoughts and prayers and I wish you well these next few months. Having had lost a much younger brother six years ago, I know from experience just how hard the first few months may be.
To Amy’s friends, I offer my time and a sympathetic ear should they ever desire it. My e-mail is listed on the directory, and my Facebook account is open to any and all.
R.I.P. Amy Adams. You will be missed.
