Such a tragedy. She was a beautiful woman, who adored her son and husband. I have known them for years, and this is hitting her family very hard. She must have been in a very dark place to have done this. I can't imagine her doing this with a clear mind. RIP Amanda
what i heard was she worked at bimart and was on vacation she has a couple kids one here and one in i think idaho or nevada.
it would be nice if there would be more information,some of us are still waiting to hear about our friends/family.My brother Lloyd is still missing from Eugene,Cottage grove area.There is alot of mis-information on the missing poster;my brother is Native American not White,wasnt a homeless vagrant like they said.
I also would like to have an UPDATE on this, nobody seems to know who and several people are wondering what's up with this, just not right to announce something tragic and then sweep the rest of the story under the rug so to speak.
Up date please! I am from CG & would like to know.
 @Coosbayresident I second that I can't imagine they have not identified the body yet.
Suicide? I have seen many people jump off that dam. Maybe the water is lower now then in summer. But still suicide is on the river side of the dam.
 @givupongod So Sad have they found out who it is yet? I live in C.G. it would be nice to know what age group it was too, teen or adult?
@Mindy Ray Bench @givupongod I heard female, young,, worked at Bimart,fishermen were fishing when she appeared, sad very sad
