Memorial post to Amy Linkert

 For those who knew her, she was a sweet soul and a dedicated friend and carver. Amy passed away last month while on a day hiking trip in the Craters of the Moon Park, in Arco, Idaho. She had been out day hiking with her friend Jo Elliot-Blakeslee, who is still missing today.

This was one of the last of Amy's carvings. This carving was of a white buffalo, with some embellishments on the background.

 Here, Amy was sitting in a class with some of the members of the Idaho Woodcarvers Guild. The class was carving faces, hosted by Gene Fuller. In this picture, Amy is chatting with Ken Peterson.

 In this picture, Amy is carving in Dave Stetson's class. She is working on a mountain man designed by Dave Stetson. Amy later finished the carving and it was one of her best, which is saying a lot about the carving.
Amy, we already miss you. We know you are teaching a carving class in Heaven. I hope the angels enjoy your company as much as we did while you traveled among us.
