Amanda went home to be with her Lord and Saviour on Thursday, April 9, 2020, at 20 years of age. Cherished daughter of Melissa Brady and the late Kevin Brady. Devoted granddaughter of Paul and Bonnie Mercer and John and Margaret MacLeod. Great granddaughter of Diane Mercer. Dear niece of Drew Mercer (Amy), Blair Mercer (Angela), Johnny Brady (Cathy), Steven Brady, Paula Mordue (John), Mike Brady (Jennifer), Betty Navarrete (Mario) along with a loving, large extended family and friends who adopted her as family.
Amanda was determined to live life to the fullest and was always up for an adventure despite her very serious heart condition since birth. She had a quiet strength. She never complained about her life situations, instead, focused her mind on activities that touched her heart and brought her and others joy. She loved children, dogs, zoos, Canada’s Wonderland, camping, travel, photography, stuffed animals, arcade games, all things Disney, surprizes, bright hair colour, balloons, swimming, Sick Kid’s Nurses & Child Life Specialists, musicals, Pokemon, turtles, Olaf, pandas, golf-cart rides, church nursery, Great Wolf Lodge, flip flops, heart shapes, princess tiaras, pedicures, fancy nails, Ripley’s Aquarium, Ethan, Abby, Zoe, Elizabeth, Gilmour Girls and mostly her Mom with whom she had a Lorelai/ Rory relationship. She had a gentle spirit and was a generous giver of one of the rarest gifts- her attention. If you had the honor of knowing her, you loved her.
The family would like to thank everyone involved in her care and treatment at Toronto Sick Kids and the Toronto General Hospital and are forever grateful to Ronald McDonald House in London and Toronto. As well as Starlight Foundations for their generosity. Also for God’s army of prayer warriors- Pastors and friends from all over the world who never stopped praying and supporting Amanda in her life journey.
A private interment will take place at the Heritage Cemetery of St. Peter. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Those wishing may make a memorial donation to Sick Kids, Mission Eurasia Canada, or the charity of your choice.
