This story I had prayed I
would never have to repeat,
I just pray you never have to tell a story as this. When I lost Amy's site it was beyond my
control since I had not saved her site to
disk.
I pray I am able to tell this in a way
that will not offend anyone. That is not
what this is all about and I only pray that
those that find it offensive in anyway "please"
just ignore what I am about to say.
On October 15, 1999 the family of Helen and
Tim Remsburg were about to begin a day
that would be as no other.
This family consists of Helen, Tim, Brian,
Amy, Jenna. Tim is the first one up as usual, Helen is
close behind. They pour a cup of coffee that
is done at the same time daily because it
was brewed on a timer..Helen calls..Amy,
Jenna come on hon lets get going you have
school and Amy you don't want to be late
for work. Just a few more minutes mom
please..ok..Helen and Tim drink their
coffee and talk about the approaching
weekends activities that the family had
planned. Helen calls again but this time
she enters the bedrooms of the girls one at a
time she gently awakes them with kisses and hugs.
This may sound strange or unreal to some,
but this is how much love that this family
has..ok.. kids are up..I forgot to tell you
brother Brian now has his own home so he is
not there on this fateful day..Jenna finds
time to ask Amy about the up coming
birthday party that Amy always arranges
for Jenna..it is always done in a Halloween
theme..This family truely loves doing for
each other and loved every moment of the
time they spent with each other
Almost time for Jenna to leave and Amy is
right behind her..as they exit the door..they
always turn and say Mom, Dad we love you
and run back for another kiss and hug..on
this day..Helen remembers after the
fact that..Amy turns again before leaving and
says "You Are The Awesomest Mom in The
World"...she tells Helen that often...Awesome
is Amy's favorite word..Helen holds on to
those words with all she can now.
Mom is working at home today, she is a
computer programmer and gets to work
from home often..to be there with the
children to give them the extra time they need and this was
very special to Helen..Tim is at work..but
always reachable by cell phone.
Amy calls Helen about 2:45..they talk and
make plans of shopping and going up to
camp to start to close up for the winter..Amy
and Helen are both so excited about the
family spending this time together..as
always..ok...here we go..this is very hard
for me to do again..so if you find type errors
or you are not sure of something I say please
get in touch with me so I can make sure you
are aware of all that happened.
Amy works two part time jobs to help with
expenses of school and for spending..one of
the jobs was at a dentist office..she was
going to college to be a dentist.
Around 4:30 Helen is almost done working
..Tim is fueling up his truck for the trip to camp..
Amy and one of her co-workers, which is
also one of Amys best friends..are now
leaving work..followed closely by the dentist
and his assistant..Amy and her friend walk to their cars as
Amy waves and gives one of her famous
smiles her friend is getting in her car as
Amy enters her car..completely unaware of
the horror that is approaching..what we
know from now on is what the police have
put together from the dentist and his
assistant and on the most part of what Amys
friend has told them.
They hear someone yell "AMY" they
turn..and hear.."bang..bang..bang..bang..bang..
bang..bang..bang..bang..yes
nine shots then silence then again..bang..bang..
A young man by the name of Liam Yeouns
had murdered Amy ..with a semi
automatic pistol..point blank range and
then reloaded and turned the gun on
himself..our Amy died before she knew what
hit her..we thank God for this daily..Liam
on the other hand lived for a few minutes
..after the ambulance arrived he died
shortly of two gun shots in his mouth..as
Amy's friend yells to the dentist to call
"911"..she tries to get to Amy..but it was to
much for her to handle..but by this
time the dentist makes a second phone
call..this is what is said.
Helen..yes this is Helen..Helen oh my God
you have to come Amy has been in a
criminal accident..What did you
say?? Helen please come Amy Amy oh
my god hurry Helen..Please slow down I
don't understand is Amy ok???is anyone
else hurt??..Helen just get here..
ok alright..tell Amy I am on my way..
Helen hangs up the phone..thinking to
herself of a hundred things all at once..but
oh no..this is Friday night..Amy is on the
other side of Nashua..it will take at least
30 minutes to get there if she is lucky..she
thinks..Tim..yes Tim ..she calls him on the
cell phone..he is about a block or two from
Amys work..he doesn't understand ..he asks
Helen what the heck is a " criminal
accident"???..Helen says hon I have no
idea but please just get to her..please let
me know what is happening..I will get a
friend to drive me..I am to upset to try to
drive myself..oh ok honey..I will call you
when I know anything.
Tim jumps in his truck ..as he is waiting to
turn to go to the next block where Amy's
work place is and where Amy always parks
her car..The sirens blaring and the police
cars, all the sirens the flashing lights..ohhhhh my
god what is going on..someone must really
be in trouble..could this be Amy???Tim
not knowing what to do..but yet his stomach is telling
him "yes Tim" follow the ambulance..Tims
heart is pounding..He turns his truck
around fighting all the traffic..He follows
the sounds of the sirens..reaching the
hospital he barely gets his truck into park
before he jumps out ..leaving the door to his
truck open..running..running to get to the
emercency entrance..he must get to
Amy..He thinks to himself..if I can just get
to her she will be fine..I have to see
her..but..he is held back by security..the
doctors and nurses will not allow him to get
to her...he waits..and waits..going almost
out of his mind..finally a nurse..she asks
Tim..does your daughter wear toe rings????
what?? what are you talking about???...the
nurse asks again are these your daughters
toe rings??..Tim is beside himself by now..he
yells what the hell do you mean ..my
daughter has beautiful long blonde
hair..she has a beautiful smile with teeth
that are so white..why do you want to
know about toe rings..yes yes these belong
to her..let me see her..please let me see
her..sorry Mr.Remsburg your daughter is
"dead"..NO..no..no..oh my
god..no..no..Tim falls to his knees..he can't
breathe..he has to get some air..He runs to
the exit sign..He falls to his knees
crying..no..no..no..oh my god how can I
tell Helen..I have to tell her that our Amy is
gone..but why..who..what..why..just then
Helen drives in..she sees Tim..and she
knows without words..she runs in to get to
Amy..but the hospital staff can't let her see Amy
like she is..they just can't..so they prevent
them from getting to her..as Helen and Tim
try to get some kind of grip on what is
happening..Tim realizes someone must get
to the house to get Jenna..who was just
getting home from school..unaware of any
of what has just happened..Tim calls the
neighbor asking them to please get Jenna
and to not say anything till they get home
to tell her themself..Tim also asks the
neighbor to get on the web and see if any of
the television stations had picked up the
story yet..not wanting Helen to go home to
the flashing news camera's..so the neighbor
added Amy's name to a search engine and
did a search of her name and what came
up would shock the devil himself.
Please read Amys parents words on what happened also..please come back to visit the rest of Amys site
beautiful thanks received on 9/12/2001
Please visit Helen's Letter of "Good-bye", she sent it with Amy when she was laid to rest. This is a must see. No one needs to write something like this. You must help us to prevent another. You can also find a poem written by Jenna (Amys sister), and poem that our Amy wrote to God at the age of 11, this is a must see.

Help us with this fight
Right now I need to speak from my heart to yours. When God sends us the gift of a child, we need to treasure every moment. As you can see it can be torn from you in a blink of an instant. One thing Helen and Tim did was, made every moment with each child count. They have nothing that they regret, only that the time with Amy ran out.
It has now been over two years since this horrible murder, and we try to live each day the best as we can. The way amy would expect us to. Helen and Tim have ok days, and then, days that they can only get through with the grace of God.
What is hard for us is this. For many days and years you are a mom. One day someone tells you that your child is gone. OK. You are still her mom, she is still your child. Your arms ache for a hug. Your heart pleads for just one "I Love You Mom"..You are the awesomest mom on earth.
If someone looses a child, do you not search to the ends of the earth? Yes of course you do. Can anyone tell me the difference then. Why Helen would still not search to the ends of the earth for her child? Amy is there one morning and at 4:33 on a sunny October day, someone takes her. But where do they take her? Why did they take her? Why do some people say "get over it and get on with life". OH OK thanks for the advice..now I am all better..now I can live..
These are things that trouble me. When did Helen stop being Amys mom? Can anyone answer that? and if you are a mom you will search till you find that child. So Helen's search will never end till she is with her in Heaven.. So please tell those people that say "get over it" to get a life.

What we would love to see is that those that wish to, on October 15 at 4:33 we are going to release two yellow balloons from each of us in celebration of her heavenly birthday.
Please the enviorment people that are against this, just don't do it. But I pray you allow us our rights as a family to do this without any bad email or comments from your view point. Please allow us our freedom to do this as a family and as others that want to honor our Amy. I thank you in advance.
I do want to let you know that Senator Gregg and a Senator from California along with other senators are working on another bill to prevent the selling or giving away of ones identity. When I know more I will let you know. Your letters help keep this alive I am sure.
