Leave a tribute for Amy Stroupe Kincaid.
Family I was so shocked to hear of Amy's passing. She was one of a kind but knew she loved her family. Last time I saw her she just held my and you just knew without words what was in her heart. Love. She will surely be missed but we have so many memories of our family's together nearly every Sunday having snakes or supper at the Kincaid home. I can honestly say 2 people I admired as Christians it would be Amy and Phifer Kincaid. Hugs and so much love going out to the family.
