Amy Lynn Doerr, 30, Falmouth

Amy Lynn Barnard Doerr, 30, of Falmouth, Ky., passed away on Wednesday, February 8, 2006 at the St. Elizabeth Medical Center South in Edgewood, Ky. Born on April 30, 1975 in Harrison County, Ky., she was a daughter of Gary and Ann Ramey Barnard. On November 21, 1998 she married Chad Doerr, and her dear husband survives her passing. She was a 1993 graduate of Pendleton County High School and a 1998 graduate of Kentucky Christian University. She formerly worked as an elementary teacher at Northern Elementary, Pendleton County, and later worked at Kentucky Farm Bureau Insurance in Falmouth, Ky. She was a member of the Antioch Mills Christian Church, Harrison County, where she also served as the pianist, a Sunday School teacher, choir director, small group leader, Ladies Aid member, and as a spiritual leader and encourager to all who knew her.

"I believe Amy was an angel put here in our community for each one of to know, to love, and to be a witness to each of us that no matter how we feel or what we have wrong with us in our lives, we can still be a strong Christian and teach others no matter how short our life on earth is," said Debbie Dennie. "I never saw Amy without a smile on her young face. She was always bubbly and a strong Christian woman. I was told that she played the piano at church the Sunday before she died.

"Her strong faith and her extraordinary loving nature made her a remarkable woman. I don't believe she ever met a stranger. Her involvement with church, community, school and friends from all over was highly recognized last Friday evening by the huge, huge turnout of those who came to pay their last respects to her."

Antioch Mills said goodbye to a strong Christian sister on Sunday, February 12, 2006. "During the service, the congregation first worshipped God, as Amy always did, and then shared testimony on the way that God and Amy had touched our lives," said church member and friend Keith Smith. "Our senior minister and Amy's husband, Chad, shared e-mails that Amy had been sending out to a network of friends throughout her traveling down this path.

"In Amy's words: I pray daily that God would make Himself known to everyone connected with this situation and pray that you will join me in that prayer as well. Again I cannot thank you enough for your prayers. To know how busy you are and how many people ask for your prayers, it humbles me to know that you have taken time to lift me and my family before our Great God. May God bless you and your family as you have been such a blessing to us!"

In addition to her husband, Chad Doerr, she is survived by her daughter, Emrie Elizabeth, at home, parents, Gary and Ann Barnard, Falmouth, Ky., sister and brother-in-law, Julie and Josh Piatt, Smithville, Ohio, brother and sister-in-law, Kevin and Teresa Barnard, Falmouth, Ky., mother-in-law and father-in-law, Don and Brenda Doerr, Alexandria, Ky., her great aunt, Louise England, Cynthiana, Ky., sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Carriann and Scott Hinds, Maineville, Ohio, nephews, Carter Piatt, Noah Barnard, Nathan Norton, Austin Hinds, and Andrew Hinds, and her nieces, Elli Barnard, Ashlie Hinds and Arynn Hinds.
