Amanda was 44 years old. She lived a vibrant and fierce life that touched many and left a mark on all who knew her. Her favorite pastime since she was a little girl was to go fishing. Anything water related called to her, she loved the outdoors. She found that she liked to hunt after moving to Missouri. This was great since she had the water and the woods right at her backdoor. She found her niche in the entertainment industry. She went to work for Dolly Parton's Stampede where she worked with the costumes in the wardrobe department. She left to become a kitchen manager over seeing trustees in the county jails.

Something she loved was mudbugs and missed how they were not available in Missouri like in Louisiana. She loved her food and what we all looked forward to was her making cornbread dressing. She loved the Lewis family recipe for the chicken continental.

Left to cherish her memory are her sons, Steven Lewis Jr., Kasey Keel and girlfriend Zoey. Parents Nadine and Edward Fairchild Jr., Sister Angela Wyatt and husband Christopher, Brother Justin Fairchild and wife Kristin; nieces McKenzie and Madison along with numerous family and friends.

She is preceded in death by her Papa Ed and Grandma Jo, Grandma Phyllis and Uncle Buddy.
