GENOA, Ohio Over two dozen family and friends came together at Veteran s Memorial Park in Genoa to remember the life of Amber Eichner Saturday.
Those who knew her best say she was a great mother and a kind soul. When she was little, she was goofy and weird, Amber s cousin Amanda Kimbrell said.
Her niece, Jersiee Wood, says she s going to miss her aunt, who was always there for the family. Loving, caring, nice, I could go on forever, said Jersiee. I remember a lot of good times, she taught me a lot, Amber s younger brother said. She was full of life and laughter and she loved her children.
