Amy grew up in Sioux City, IA. and attended public schools there to complete the 11 th grade. She met Brandon Barbee and they married on July 23, 1998. They had been together for 25 years; they were the love of each other’s lives. Of this union, they had two beautiful daughters, Brittany and Chelsy. Amy worked at many jobs, most recent, being at Divvy and Inception Outdoors, working side by side with Brandon.
Amy was proud of her family and loved them so much. She was extremely excited when she became a grandma (Nana) with her first grandbaby, Zander. Then came Axel, then Uriah and another on the way, which she was looking so forward to holding. She was a good mom to Brittany and Chelsy, who have many good memories of their mom. Amy loved playing with the grandbabies. She was a great person and had a big heart, always willing to help anyone in need. If you needed a ride you could call Amy and she would be there.
She loved the outdoors, camping, and fishing with Brandon and the girls, family and friends and her fur babies. Her most favorite place was Ponca State Park. She loved family get together at the park for picnics and cook outs, or just going to someone’s house for a barbeque.
Amy is survived by her husband, Brandon, two daughters, Brittany (Zach) Perrin, their son Zander and another child on the way, Chelsy Barbee and her son, Axel and daughter, Uriah, four brothers; Casey (Anita) Witzke, Mark Kufas, Chad Gunzenhauser, Nicholas (Dawn) Gunzenhauser, four sisters; Melissa Witzke, Heather Lee, Tiffany Lee, Amanda (Billy) Peck, Special uncle (more like a father) Tracy (Barb) Hathaway, mother-in-law, Debbie Barbee, father-in-law, Sonny Barbee, two brother- in-laws, Landon Barbee, Jason (Tracy) Barbee, many nieces and nephews, aunts and uncles.
