Amy A. Esposito passed away on September 17, 2020 at her home with her family at her side, after a courageous battle with breast cancer.
She was the devoted and adoring wife of Sam, loved and cherished mother of Samantha, Kelsey (Evan Karl), Kara (Nathaniel Hunt), Molly (Brandon Macias) and Seve. Amy was the beloved daughter of Janet (Pat) Haley and the late John Atkins. Beloved sister of Kara Clark, Dian (Millie Hernandez) Atkins, Jeanine Atkins and the late Kenneth Atkins and the late Greg Van Overstraeten.
Amy loved traveling with Sam, listening to the BeeGee’s, Dolly Parton, Neil Diamond and Barry Manilow, dancing her heart away and just being silly. Fourth of July was her favorite holiday with all the fireworks and Americana and also it was the day she and Sam got married. She filled whatever room she entered with boundless energy, passion and caring, and taught her family how to live life to the fullest. All who knew her, will remember her beautiful smile, good nature, unselfish kindness, her funny and spirited personality and genuine selflessness.
Amy was definitely one of a kind and will be greatly missed by all who were lucky enough to have known her. Amy loved her position as secretary at Indian Trail Elementary School in Downer’s Grove as was so loved by all her co workers, students and parents. Amy loved the color pink (light pink), and her celebration of life was highlighted with all kinds of flowers purely in that color.
