We are heartbroken to share the news that our beloved Chaplain, Amanda Reidling, passed away unexpectedly last evening in a car accident.
Amanda was more than our Chaplain — she was a light in our community, a source of comfort in difficult times, and a friend to all who knew her. Her faith, compassion, and unwavering kindness touched the lives of residents, families, and staff in countless ways.
We will deeply miss her warm smile, gentle presence, and the love she poured into every moment here at Good Shepherd Home.
Please join us in keeping Amanda’s family and loved ones in your prayers as we grieve this tremendous loss together.
We will share information about memorial arrangements when they become available.
Rest in peace, Mandy. Your legacy of love will live on in every heart you touched.
