They were best friends and enjoyed many wonderful adventures together. She especially enjoyed the beach, traveling the roads on their Spider motorcycle through New England, and the north Georgia mountains. Amy also enjoyed the many times they spent together fishing at Saint George Island and the times together hunting, fishing, and just hanging out with friends and grandson Easton at their camp in the Hammock.
