The daughter of Rosa Flores, Amanda was in the care of her foster parents, Thomas and Roberta McConnell for more than twenty years.  She attended both New Britain and Plainville Schools and will be remembered for her big brown eyes and infectious smile that would brighten the days of everyone she encountered.   She had an enduring strength, facing even the toughest challenges with optimism and her winning smile, and will be greatly missed by the many lives she touched.
