Amy Elizabeth Sattler, 23
December 19, 1987 - November 29, 2011

Amy Elizabeth Sattler of Jeffersonville, a lifetime area resident, died Tuesday, November 29, 2011 at Catskill Regional Medical Center in Harris. She was 23.
The daughter of William and Kelly Hendrickson Sattler, she was born December 19, 1987 in Harris.
Amy was not only a wonderful daughter, she was a beautiful person inside and out. She was filled with so much love and never left without a hug and a kiss and an “I love you.” Our lives will never be the same without her beautiful smile and her ability to make you feel as if you were special and loved. She was our sunshine, our life. She loved music and being outdoors, especially on a four-wheeler. So in our effort to give Amy what she would want, we will have a memorial built by her “Poppa Bear,” so that she may spend her eternity at her happiest place to be. When the time is appropriate we will notify her friends so thay may share her love of nature.
She is survived by her parents, William and Kelly Sattler of Jeffersonville; four sisters, Alisha Sattler Purdy and her husband Gregg of Monticello, Bridget Sattler of Albany, Ashley Sattler and Heather Sattler of Jeffersonville; one brother, William Sattler Jr. of Jeffersonville; her paternal grandmother, Heidi Sattler of Jeffersonville; her maternal grandmother, Sylvia Hendrickson of Jeffersonville; four nieces, Ariana and Piper Purdy and Memphis and Clover Oathout; her brother-in-law, Edward Oathout; and several aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Friends may call from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday, December 2, 2011 at the Stewart-Murphy Funeral Home, Jeffersonville; 482-4280.
Services will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, December 3 at the funeral home.
Arrangements are by Stewart-Murphy Funeral Home, Jeffersonville.
