<div itemprop="description">Amanda Jean Hood, May 11, 1980 &ndash; January 14, 2014 <br /> <br />It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden and tragic death of our beloved Amanda on January 14, 2014. Amy will be forever missed by her parents Bob and Beth (Bradley Jones), and by her devoted sisters, Erin and Katie, who will always treasure their third musketeer. Amy will also be fondly remembered by her many aunts, uncles, cousins &ndash; Rick (Lorrie), Jane, Connie (Adriane), Barbara (Larry); cousins, Tara (Ben, Eric), Dan, Evan, Norah; stepbrothers and sisters, Brock (Lisa, Luke, Tessa), Oliver, Isabel and Alexandra Jones. <br /> <br />Amy attended school in Toronto including Lawrence Park CI where she forged extraordinary life-long friendships. She made more friends when she was in Montreal studying at Concordia. Currently, she was working in a job she loved as an investment services assistant. <br /> <br />When we remember Amy, we remember a young woman filled with joy, beauty, laugher, intelligence and an insatiable thirst for knowledge. Amy is a spark that will never fade. <br /> <br />Amy loved her travels to Europe, Australia and New Zealand and recounted those trips with exquisite detail and well-planned photos of places, people and food. She loved the year she lived with Erin in London, and they took advantage of the easy access to the rest of Europe and sharing their flat with plenty of visitors. She had an incredible memory and a joy of life that was infectious to those around her. Her zest for life included cottage and Florida holidays, squash, golf, watching football, photography and cooking. <br /> <br />Amy had a tremendous love of reading and a personal talent for the written word &ndash; she wrote thoughtful notes and tremendously meaningful poems for any occasion. She was the best daughter, sister and friend. We will never forget her infectious laugh and her generous spirit. We are forever blessed to have had Amanda in our lives; even though it was a life cut short, her indomitable spirit and lust for life filled a full lifetime. She will be with us always. She was the Light of our World. <br /> <br />We invite you to share with us in remembering Amy on Sunday, January 26th, 2 p.m. at The Mt. Pleasant Visitation Centre, east gate entrance off of Mount Pleasant Road. Rev. Christopher White from Fairlawn Ave. United Church officiating. Babies and children are welcome. If you wish to make a donation, Amy would be pleased if you remembered World Wildlife Foundation. <br /></div>
