Amy was a brave young woman who endured through many difficult times.

“Lucas was our son who died of colorectal cancer in 2017, leaving a wife and three young children. Though we miss him dearly, we take comfort in knowing that he is with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ because of what Christ did for him (and everyone) on the cross and his faith is Christ. Lucas’s faith and faithfulness to God were an inspiration to many people. We thank God for the time we had with Lucas and we who have put our faith in Christ will be together again with Lucas in heaven. Praise God!
Psalm 73:26 says, “My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.””

Amy was my dear niece who left us way too soon!

This donation is given in memory of Dean DeWispelare, who recently passed March 2, 2022. The family requested In memory ofs to be given to your amazing organization!

We are donating in memory of Lucas Friendt who died in 2017 from cancer. Memories for Kids planned a special trip to Florida for our family, but we were unable to take it due to Lucas’s deteriorating health. Memories for Kids made wonderful fingerprint necklaces for our three children instead. We were blessed by Memories for Kids and want to support their mission!

She was a former board member for Memories for Kids and she was always proud of the work and especially enjoyed working with the high school students who volunteered in the organization.
