Story
<p><strong><span style="color: #cc99ff;"><span style="color: #800080;">This page is in memory of Amber Decker, an incredible daughter, granddaughter, sister, neice and best friend who would light up any room and didn’t have a bad bone in her body. Everybody has been so blessed to have been touched by such an angel and we would like the memory of her kind soul to carry on. </span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #cc99ff;"><span style="color: #800080;">There was nothing Amber loved more then family and friends. This is why we have chosen to support SOS Villages- a charity aimed at creating communities for orphaned and abandoned children. We think that the smiles Amber gives us through the happy 15 years and 25 days of memories she has left behind should be passed on to children who wouldn’t have anything to smile about without SOS Villages. </span></span></strong></p>
