Meadow. Amanda was born on March 12, 1984
in Drumheller, Alberta to Marie (Fayant) and
Glenn Grenier and was the youngest of three
children. Growing up, Amanda wanted to try as many things as she
could and she did. She especially loved dancing, her cats and exploring
wherever she went. From a very early age, Amanda was an independent,
caring, loving, thoughtful, sentimental and courageous individual.
Amanda was beautiful inside and out. All of Amanda’s traits truly
blossomed when she met her husband Tyler. Being a mother and a wife
became her first priority and she excelled at it. Amanda and Tyler married
on July 7, 2007 in Banff and had 2 beautiful daughters. As a family, they
took trips to Kuaui, Disneyworld and Costa Rica. Camping trips, biking and
hiking through the mountains and in the winter, skiing and snowboarding
were some of the many important ways to Amanda for strengthening
family ties. Family was the most important thing to Amanda and she
tirelessly worked and planned to keep it that way. About a year before
Amanda started getting sick, she was enrolled in a program working
toward getting her GED and Business Administration. She was so proud
of her high marks and like everything else Amanda set out to do, she
would have succeeded. Amanda leaves behind her two daughters,
Ava and Brooklyn, husband Tyler, mama Marie, dad Glenn, brother David,
sister Candida, nieces and nephews, as well as Father and Mother-in-law,
Wayne and Karen Long, brother-in law Jason. Also, aunts, uncle,
cousins and grandma Isa Grenier. Amanda was predeceased by her
maternal grandmother Alma Jean Fayant and cousin Scott Heptonstal.
