For 31 years, Amy fulfilled her passion of teaching children where she loved each and every child like her own. Her career was mostly spent with Kindergarten but she also taught first and second grades, and special education while also serving as an administrative assistant. Amy was dearly loved by her fellow teachers and students which were motivated and encouraged by her relentless devotion, her enthusiasm and her contagious smile. Amy also loved her Mississippi State Bulldogs and the New Orleans Saints.
Amy will be forever missed by her family: Her dedicated husband and caregiver, Keith Touchstone; her loving parents; her daughters, Amy Lauren (Kyle) of Kingwood, Texas; and Abby Sease of Kenner, Louisiana; and one grandson, Ryder Jackson. Also left to mourn her passing are her sister, Ann Ruscoe (Rusty) of Clarksdale, Mississippi; her nephews, Rhett (Cassie) Ruscoe, and John Landon Ruscoe; and her great-niece and nephew, Avery and Landon.
