Sad, sad, sad.
Breaks my heart to see a beautiful, talented young woman go to waste so early in her life.
It touches me because I have two daughter around her age
Sometimes in life we can be our own worst enemy. To me she was an innocent. She had problems as we all do, she just couldn’t see her way through them that’s all – she got lost…but now she’s found. RIP Amy
