It's Christmas. 12:12am. Returned from Church and heard a wonderful quote by Howard Thurman, about "The Work of Christmas". Found a few of his wonderful poems on this site, which lead to read about Amy and Lisa, and the committment their parents have made to MADD. What a tragedy. My heart goes out to you. What beautiful girls. I don't often find myself at a site like this, but felt drawn to it. I hope in some small way, your family's experience will touch my life. I know I won't negotiate the next time my 50 pound 9 year old fights me on sitting in a booster seat in the car.
We have two daughters also, who are 9 and 12. I don't need to be reminded of how precious they are. But I am again, and it's a good thing. I will hold on to them extra tight tomorrow morning.
Peace,
Lori

This was such a pleasure to read. What a beautiful tribute to a much loved sister, daughter and friend. You should be very happy with the results of the hard work. I would like to purchase a copy of the CD. Could you tell me how to go about getting one?

I attended Mike's HTML class in Springfield, Illinois on April 25, 200 through April 28, 2000. Great class, by the way!!!
I don't know if you have trusted Jesus Christ as your Savior. If not, I hope you will do so! The Bible says if you do this you will see Amy again!!! II Samuel 12:23
I am praying for you all!!
God Bless!!!

An extremely powerful, and uplifting tribute to Amy and Lisa. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Having lost my daughter Ashley 30 months ago, I can understand your pain.
Your website is a true celebration of Amy's life and clearly makes us "feel" the struggles that Lisa must be going through in her rehab work.
Thank you for sharing your two wonderful young ladies with the us.

I was listening to WCSX (94.7) Saturday morning (December 4, 1999) when I first heard the story about Amy.
Even though over a year after the loss of your daughter, reading your story and what happened brought me to tears. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sure that Amy was a wonderful daughter and what a terrible way to lose a child.
I too, have three daughters, although grown, I would be devastated if this happened to them.
God Bless You and keep you out of harms way.

I look at this page often because I once knew Amy and her family. What can I say? Amy was a very kind, generous person who always thought of others before herself.
Whenever I look at this page, my heart drops and saddens for her and her family. I will always remember Amy. And I want to say that I think this is a great page to show people. Love to her family- A friend

A friend of ours pointed out your web page, and I am very
moved and impressed by what you have here.
Our 6-year-old daughter (our only child) was killed in 1990,
so we have endured many of the same experiences that you
have. The bereaved parent support group we attended (a
local one in Troy, not Compassionate Friends) was a big
help.
The driver who ran over Pamela (who was sitting with my wife
far off the highway where our disabled car was parked on the
shoulder) was apparently not drunk, but he had no right to
be driving, since his license had been suspended.
Apparently he had had about ten speeding tickets and several
"accidents" in the previous five years, and according to
witnesses, he was speeding when he tried to pass a car by
driving onto the shoulder, then went up the embankment and
hit Pamela (and Suzanne, who was less seriously injured).
Pamela died about 24 hours later.
This man was a priest, on his way from Warren to Bay City,
expecting to make it in about an hour. He pled no contest
to mansluaghter, was sentenced to 2-15 years, served a brief
time in prison and then a few years more on electronic
tether. Eventually he was paroled and has since apparently
disappeared.
As you probably know, this Friday (10/1/99) a new law takes
effect, which we like to call Pamela's law, although the
general public probably associates it more with the Detroit
Red Wings. We went to Lansing last year and testified
before the House Judiciary Committee in favor of this law,
with which you are no doubt very familiar. It increases the
criminal penalties for people convicted of causing death or
serious injury when driving either drunk or on a suspended
license. It also makes it easier for the authorities to
stop such drivers from using their cars, and it puts some
crimimal responsibility on the owners of such cars as well
(in our case, this would be the church at which the priest
worked). We are pleased with this law and hope that maybe
it will help prevent in the future the horrible things that
happened to Pamela, Lisa, and Amy.
We donated a sculpture of a tortoise to the Detroit Zoo in
Pamela's memory (it's outside the reptile house). Further
details are available near the bottom of my personal web
page (http://www.oakland.edu/~grossman).
Thanks for putting your pages on the Internet, and please

Amy and Lisa's story has touched my heart. No words could ever offer you the touch of a hand and the warmth of a smile. Amy was taken from you at an early and it is difficult to imagine how the death of such a wonderful child could be in God's plan. Amy will always be your guiding light and the love you shared will forever be. I am pleased to read that Lisa is doing so well and please give her an extra hug from me today. Special RAOK hugs to you all. Thank you for sharing your story.

When I read about Lisa trying to come to terms with the loss of her sister, it helps me in my ongoing struggle to come to terms with my father's death--which happened ears ago when I was five. You are giving her an invaluable gift with your openness and honesty.
My deepest and most heartfelt thoughts are still with all of you.

It was good to see you all today. Dylan often talks about Amy and what a special friend she was to him. He also says that he knows she is up in heaven close to his dad and that they are watching down on us everyday. I know god will give you all the strength to go on knowing that one day you will be together again. Just remember to look at the rainbows.

My daughter and a friend worked last summer as "Volunteens" at Northern MI Hospital. Her friend Kali worked in ICU and we heard about your daughters from her. Although we did not know you or your daughters we felt great sadness and also anger at the man responsible. We also prayed for your children. I know I cannot say anything to ease your pain but you should know that many you do not even know shared in a very small way the sadness of your tragedy.

Hi Mike,
I have felt so bad about what has happened to your family that I haven't been able to put in to words the sympathy I feel for you and Jean. I've been reading your stories and updates and I am amazed with your strength! I'm sure writing about it, helps. I understand that you were in the area for the holidays. I hope you and your family had a nice one under the circumstances. Happy New Year!! Like you, I have two daughters and I believe that is why I am taking the news so hard. My heart goes out to children in general, but to know that this happened to such nice people hurts so bad. Excuse me...see, I am still trying to caught my breath as I right this letter (long over due). Thank you for sharing your story, I only hope that we all learn from your experience. Stay strong and keep up the good work.
May the lord continue to hold you up! Vicki

I just visited your site, and I have no words to say that you have not already heard. But I wil lsay that as a young single woman I must admit that while I have driven drunk, I have been in a car with someone who has, many times. It wasn't until recently that it actually occurred to me that what I have done for so many years is just as bad as getting behind the wheel myself. You are in my thoughts and prayers, and I know now that I will do my part in preventing such a tragedy happening again.
