I'm so sorry to hear of Amanda's passing. We met growing up at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, and got to know each other better at U-W Madison. She played at my wedding almost 17 years ago. She was a sweet person and gifted musician. My thoughts and prayers are with the Johnson and Filkins families.

Mrs. Filkins was a leader and teacher for many students, me included. She has had a huge impact on the lives of so many, she will be missed by all who knew her and loved her. She gave me the love of the violin, which I have continued from 4th grade to 6th grade. I know that anyone and everyone who knew her will always remember her. Thank you for everything Mrs. Filkins.
