Amber Jean Wittstruck was born on September 7, 1979 in Minneapolis, MN. She was the oldest of Clifford and Barbara (Collier) Wittstruck’s three children. Amber’s childhood years were spent in Boston, Massachusetts and Rosemount MN, graduating from Rosemount High School.
During Amber’s younger years she loved to go camping and fishing with her family. The fishing continued throughout her adulthood as she continued to fish with her own children and many times you could find the whole family fishing off of the dock at Cliff and Barb’s home. In high school she enjoyed playing hockey and softball. She loved acting and was currently in rehearsals for a play at Saint Paul College, the school she was attending for nursing. Amber enjoyed making crafts and scrapbooking; in fact many of the crafts were made for her children.
An intelligent, caring woman, Amber’s life ended at the age of 32 as she entered God’s arms during the morning hours of Tuesday March 13, 2012.
