Amy Dawn Wilde

July 04, 1978 ~ September 03, 2009

"Our Beloved Daughter and Sister returned home to her Heavenly Father to walk with the angels, leaving behind her parents; Theresa Larsen of Sandy, Utah and Scott and Karen Wilde and their family, Nichole, Brittany, and Nathan of Ammon, Idaho; her brothers, Eric (Laurice) Wilde of Orem, Utah and Christopher Truxal of Sandy, Utah; Her sisters, Hollie (Tyson) Crook of West Jordan, Utah and Natalie (Jeff ) Madsen of Hurricane, Utah. Amy also left behind 3 nephews and 1 niece who loved her dearly. Amy, you are free now, our sweet girl. You are the wind beneath our wings." This is the obituary of my sweet cousin. Amy was diagnosed with a form of Muscular Dystrophy called Fredrick's Ataxia when she was 9 years old. The doctors speculated that she would pass away by her teen years. She sure showed them wrong. She died at the age of 31, tired and ready to move on from such a compromising mortal existence. I wish that I had spent more time with her as adults. The perspective I could have gained.... Our Father in Heaven must only call very loyal souls to endure a life of so much pain and sorrow, in order to bring about a greater work. Now you can see and walk and run! No more electric wheelchair for you! Oh, what Heaven must feel like after being stuck in earthly confines for so long. Party on Amy, you lucky girl. And go find that gorgeous man who has been waiting for you to get to Heaven.
