Amanda has been a dedicated town employee for 15 years, the last eight of which she served wonderfully as the Library Director. Words cannot express the loss that we feel. All who knew Amanda truly loved her; she was the greatest colleague anyone could ask for. Amanda was an instrumental part of planning, constructing and opening the new Gladys E. Kelly Library. Her devotion helped to ensure that our library was one of the finest, not only in Central Massachusetts, but anywhere. While we will certainly miss her leadership at the library, even more so we will miss Amanda’s kind and gentle nature. Each time someone met or spoke with her, they came away feeling better off for it. She was a cheerful and optimistic person and helped spread happiness to all around her. Amanda’s passing leaves not only an empty spot in our library, but in our hearts as well.
