Born on May 6, 1980, in Knoxville Tennessee, Amanda was a beloved daughter, sister, mother, and friend to many. She is preceded in death by her father Buddy Douglas, mother Judy Heath (Roderick) and brother David Heath. Throughout her life, she carried with her a deep sense of love and devotion to her family. Amanda’s proudest accomplishment was being a mother to her two children: her son, Lane Ferguson, and her daughter, Caroline Ferguson. Her love for them was unwavering and formed the foundation of her life’s purpose. She also shared a special bond with her loyal dog, Rawlings Reese, who brought her comfort and companionship. Amanda was a 1998 Powell High school graduate where she then pursued her career in the medical field.
