Hello Margie...
I'll never stop spreading the word of finadamos.com!
With Love! ~ diane

I wanted to write because it seems to be the best way for me to handle my feelings surrounding Amos' disappearance. I was engaged to Amos after we had been in a relationship and living together for over a year. I left my name anonymous because my presence is potentially unwanted by the family. Regardless, I feel I had a right to express my feelings about Amos because he has been a huge influence in my life and I hold a sacred space for him inside of me. I apologize that it might have seemed inconsiderate not to mention my name, but I felt that it might be easier for certain family members to read my words without a name attached.
I am still figuring out how to handle all of my feelings surrounding Amos, and it just seems that sharing the memories and thoughts and ideas that come to mind when I think of him help in some way to keep his presence awake and hope alive. I felt if I shared these thoughts on his page that it might help others keep hope as well...if it does not, please let me know and I will just journal them in my own book.
With much regard...

Weare, NH

Margie,

M-still thinking of you and Amos. Hoping and praying for his safe return.
Is there any news from anywhere that you can talk about? I haven't heard anything in a long time. God Bless, Cindy

I write this message to soul companion. Why do you post these messages? Your writings seep in compassion, yet where is the compassion for Amos' mother, family and friends with your continued anonymity?

Soul companion/Selah, I hope you will pause and reflect and make yourself known. This family deserves answers. If you have none to give, you have no reason to hide.

Madison, WI

Soul Companion: I am troubled by yet a 2nd posting by you without your email address, name, or location. Why do you hide your identity?

He is with us in mind, inspiring us to better ourselves
He is with us in heart, shining his smile and laughter all throughout
He is in my memories, precious, sacred moments that dwell within our past
He is in my fingertips, writing with beauty to keep us strong
He is in my tears, salty cleansing grief of release
He is in my mind, inspiring and warming, he lives on through memories and with strength , surviving the challenges that face us day to day
The gentle warrior continues in his fight through our hope, blood, tears, faith
Blessed Amos please return to the place that you call home, your Mother loves you and your brothers and sisters are waiting for your embrace
Great Spirit,
Please guide us to truth
Please protect our children
Please shelter us from harm

Hi Kat,

Thank you so much for taking the time to post your thoughts and letting us know that you care and are thinking about Amos.

I will give a special hug to Gnosis for you. Poor Gnosis…he is so sad.

Thank you again for your "hugs of positive energy" and your prayers. I am glad that your son is with you.

We really do appreciate your acts of kindness and we will try to take care of ourselves.

WV

I just wanted all of Amos' loved ones to know I am thinking of them & will say a special prayer for all of you.

Please give a special hug to Gnosis. I know I will give my boy an extra hug every day starting today for positive energy to bring Amos home.

Please take care of yourselves.

Hi Kim,

They all had interesting things to tell me, and I still believe that there are people out there that can tell me specific up-to-date information that leads me to Amos or what took place @ 5078 Lacy Rd.

I need them to contact me. I will listen to anyone.

I have respect for people that have "special" abilities and continue to help people using these abilities.

Brooklyn, WI

Hi Margie-
Did Kathleen or any of the others have any insight for you?

Madison, WI

Hi Kim,

Thank you for posting.

Yes, I called Kathleen the minute that I got off the phone with the police on the first day that we realized Amos was missing. I have had the help of other psychics, animal communicators, remote viewers, and astrologers but so far, no one has found Amos.


Thank you for recommending Kathleen though, and if you think of any other theories, help, etc. please email me with those. My email address is always listed with my posts or you can find it on the "Contact Us" link. I would appreciate any thoughts that may help find Amos.

Thank you so much as well for saying a prayer everyday on your way to work past Amos’ house.

That is positive energy as you pass the exact point of Amos' disappearance, just maybe...just maybe something amazing or mystical may happen one of those times, whether you get a feeling, or some sign..we just don’t know. Thank you again.

Brooklyn, Wi

Margie
This may sound strange, but have you ever considered speaking to a psychic? One that I would reccommend is Kathleen Schneider. I have gone to her twice and she told me things that no one could possibly ever know. She is quite amazing. She is in Middleton. Her phone number is 836-1935. Just a thought.

I drive by Amos's house everyday on my way to work and say a little prayer. I hope he finds his way home to you.

Madison, WI

Hello Everyone,

Today is Mothers Day and it is also a full 6 months that Amos has been missing and thinking of that reality makes me feel physically sick.

I have in front of me the Mothers Day card Amos gave me last year. As in Amos’ character, it is a nature card created locally with a photo of Spiderwort taken in Spring Green in the Summer 2003.

Amos took me out to Bluephies for brunch that day. We stood outside of Bluphies and chatted for a while before we got back into Amos’ truck to return home. I remember it being a very warm Mothers Day and that I was overdressed for the temperature. We were standing by the Knickerbocker sign outside Bluephies and Amos brought it to my attention that the spelling was wrong. We laughed about that.

I want to hear Amos’ voice so I play his recorded message to Gnosis that he has embedded in a dog toy. I listen to a CD a long-time friend of Amos’ burned for me. It is of them making music; Amos is playing the harmonica and they are making funny audio and it gives me a big smile and I laugh with them listening to it, but of course that follows my extreme sadness and teary eyes and crying. I must hear Amos even if in the end it leaves me broken.

Anyone having any info. that has not yet come forth, please do. Just contact me if you don’t want to contact the police. If you overheard something, or are a friend of someone that you know is involved, or a boyfriend or girlfriend of someone...please contact me with whatever info. you have. My contact info. is listed on the Reward link.

I want to take this opportunity again to thank all of you for keeping Amos in your thoughts. I still have very high hopes that Amos is out there and will be home soon.

I didn’t get a call from him on his brithday, I haven’t received one yet for Mothers Day but that doesn’t wash away my hope.

Madison, WI

Hi Diane,

Thank you for being a regular visitor to Amos’ website. We all appreciate the fact that you continue to care and your thoughts and positive energy are still flowing out there to bring Amos home.

Thank you for wishing Amos a Happy Birthday. I know that he is out there Diane (gut feeling). Where? That is the question. Why is he missing? That’s another question.

I need some answers...that is all I know. The police are working hard on the case but they really don’t share any specific info. with the family, and well...they ask us to trust them, yet they don’t want to trust us. This is a problem.

Chicago is a great city with warm-hearted people, Art & music, variety of food galore, and a great transit system. Yes, Amos enjoyed his visits to Chicago. We always talked about taking a visit to Chicago together. I am still very hopeful that we will make that trip in the near future.

Thank you as well for attaching Amos' website’s url to your email signature...that is a great way to help spread the word.

Madison

Hi Jeanie,

Hi Kristin & Emily,

Thank you for your birthday wishes to Amos...and thank you as well for putting this website together and launching it within such a short time of Amos' disappearance. I can never express how important this website has been and continues to be.

Happy Birthday Amos! Today you are 28 and I miss among a million other things, giving you socks on your birthday and us laughing about it.

Hi Melissa,

Thank you so much for your post of kind words and support. I appreciate your understanding of my pain, our pain, and thank you as well for your prayers for peace. I know that they will help.

As I am only two years older than your son and a mother myself, I am empathetic to your tragedy twofold. I only wanted to say that I am thinking of you, your son and your family & friends. I pray for peace for you all.

Madison, WI

Hi Susie from April 14th,

I do believe with all my heart that Amos will return safely. Thank you for posting your positive support and thoughts for Amos and his family.

Madison, WI

Hi Sara from April 14th,

Thank you so much for keeping Amos and all of his family and friends in your thoughts and prayers.

I would say that we are both blessed to know Kristin and Emily. Their efforts to help in so many ways; I can’t tell you how much of an impact that has had for the search for Amos and for myself to communicate with all of you.

I hope as well that the reports are erroneous except for the part about finding Amos. I just feel that he is out there, and I also feel that the detectives are very close to cracking the case.

Strength at times is very difficult to muster up…but you do it, because you need to be ready to always fight for your child.

Madison, WI

Hello A Soul Companion from April 13th,

I don’t know what to say to you. Please tell me who you are. Please send me your email address so that I can email you. How do you know Amos so well? Were you out at the search site? Where do you live? Who are you?

Madison, WI

Hi Emily from April 13th,

Thank you so much for posting your kind words; knowing that we are in your thoughts and prayers is definitely good positive energy for everyone helping to find Amos.

Madison, WI

Hi Cindy from April 13th,

I was hoping to come on this site and get good news as well. After the press conference, I felt that life stinks…and then it gets worse, ya know?

I too hope for a safe return of Amos. His Birthday is April 28th and it would be the greatest present ever for everyone to see him walk through the door.

I was doing better before the press conference but that threw me back a few pegs. I’ll get stronger again; I will never lose my fight for my son. Thank you again for all your thoughts and prayers.

Madison, Wisconsin

Believe with all your heart that he will return safely to his family and friends. I will keep Amos and the entire family in my thoughts and my prayers.

New Orleans, LA

Miss Margie,
You don't know me but I have been praying for you and for Amos to return home soon. I am Emily's sister and Kristin's friend. I hope the recent reports are found to be erroneous, except for the notion that you might be closer to finally finding Amos. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and pray for you to find strength and peace during this trying time.

i just wanted to say...I've been thinking of Amos all day long. He is such a humble and beautiful spirit..so healing to my soul and powerful in his life and mine. I will always have such love for him. I am ever reminded of the wonderful gift of sharing such close and precious time with him. Even though I am so far from wherever he may be...I can feel his presence today, a beautiful presence of innocence and kindness that I loved and continue to love about him. I feel even though I don't know where he is...I know he has a connection with everything around me...and through that knowing..I am able to handle the fact that I cannot embrace him as I would wish, but through my own breathe I can breathe his breathe, Oh God, I miss him,.. still even he alone taught me that my attachment to him was only an illusion because in reality , in truth I lived in him and he lived in me...with much regard to the life and lessons that he taught and is still teaching me..I love you Amos, where ever you are and where ever you may be, i always remember our special seasons in the wind and the rain, and in the afternoons, your softness and gentleness surround me and the thought of you comforts me. Please come home soon. We are all hoping to see your shining face once again.

San Diego, CA

I'm praying for you today Margie. You and Amos are in my thoughts.

Oregon, WI

Hello Margie.. I was hoping to come on this site and see some good news about Amos, I have been out of touch lately, but have been keeping you in my prayers, Hoping everyday for his safe return to you and the people who love him unconditionally.

Hi Lisa,

Thank you for taking the time to post your thoughts, and yes, please keep checking back to the website. I will post any information that I can...when I get it.

Thank you for your continued prayers and support. It is unreal and unbelievable that something like this is happening. Just a year ago Amos and I were watching the Audrey Seiler search on TV...my god, I go over that scene over and over in my head: the two of us sitting in my apartment watching that, and now to have that happening to us...yes, it is surreal.

Gnosis is doing fine staying with someone that cares about Amos & Gnosis, but I really need to go get Gnosis. Unfortunately, my current residence does not work for a large dog. I am looking to find a small house with a decent size yard in the Madison area but that is not an easy task. Housing is overpriced in Madison, especially if you are trying to purchase a house by yourself.

I am very hopeful that you will have a chance to meet Amos in the near future.

Oshkosh WI

I keep checking this website in hopes to find good news about Amos. I hope that he finds his way home to the people who love him the most. I have a 13 year old daughter, I dont know how I could go on without her. My heart goes out to all of you,,,,your entire family is in my prayers. On another note,,how is Gnosis doing? We cant forget our furry friends and their feelings also. I wish I could have met Amos, from everything I have read,,he seems like an all around wonderful person. Many prayers and love being sent your way,,I will continue to check this website. Lisa

Hi Karyne,

Thank you so much for posting all your kind words, thoughts and prayers for Amos. It is so good hearing from Amos’ friends and classmates.

The timing of your post has helped me get through this Easter Sunday. Memories of past Easters raced through my head all weekend. I remember seeing Amos discover his very first Easter egg by his pillow when he was old enough to understand that this was a special day.

I also am going through mounds of receipts for taxes. Some receipts are close to the time when Amos disappeared. One from Willy St. Co-op marked October 23, 2004 and I think if only I or a friend of Amos’ had been at his house on November 8th, maybe we could have prevented whatever took place there.

So yes, your post is not only thoughtful but it is truly helping me get through this day.

Thank you so much for being Amos’ friend and that you still remember and think of him often. I can only think that has to help guide Amos back home, don’t you?

Montello

I was a good friend of Amos in school in Spooner. I am hoping and praying for him everysince I found out he was gone. Even though I haven't seen him in ten years I've thought about him often and wondered how he was doing. I feel that I was very lucky to have been able to be friends with him and know how special of a person he is.

Madison, WI

Hi Leanna,

Thank you for posting and checking back to Amos’ website. I sincerely appreciate that you daily keep Amos and our family in your thoughts and prayers. I feel that is a powerful positive flow of energy. This and your kind words of support help keep everyone strong while waiting for Amos to return home.

Eastern WA

I'm just checking for updates. Amos crosses my mind daily, and then I pray for him and his whole family. Please stay strong and know that there are LOTS of people out there praying for you all!

Madison, WI

Hi Amber,

Thank you so much for posting your thoughts and thank you and your family for your continued support and prayers. We appreciate that so much.

Yes, please keep checking the website. I am still very hopeful that my son will return home safe and that he too will be posting to the website thanking everyone for their concern, prayers and hope for his return.

I will try to continue to stay strong, with your help. Thank you again.

Madison, WI

I'm always checking to see if Amos has safely returned home. My family and I keep your family in our prayers daily. Stay strong.

Madison, WI

Hi Rita,

Thank you so much for posting and sharing your thoughts. I’m glad that you check the website frequently. I try to update it whenever I get any info. -- plus it helps me when I hear from all of you.

I know dear, dear Rita that you feel my pain with the loss of your son. I don’t feel the anger that you speak of in your post though. I feel like I am in my own little world of fog, confusion and sadness. It’s just very foggy for me now.

Thank you for continuing to keep Amos and everyone in your heart and prayers, we really do appreciate that.

I will keep the faith. Thank you again.

Madison

Hi Margie,
I was just making my regular check-in and read about your dream. I feel your pain. I don't know about you, but I can remember the anger I felt when I drove down the street and saw people smiling and laughing - didn't they know he was gone...? I still experience this, just not as often. Know that you, Amos, Gnosis , and all who care for Amos are always in my heart and prayers. God never makes mistakes, even tho we may feel that way. Put your trust in Him. Questioning His actions (or lack of in our view) can increase ones anger and grief. Keep the faith. Later.

Madison, WI

Hi Pam,

Thank you for posting your support and thoughts. Thank you as well for sharing your same feelings of emptiness with me, your prays for Amos’ safe return, and asking your mom to help guide Amos home...that made me cry as well. Take care.

Madison, Wi

Just checking back to see if there is any news on Amos. I just read about your dream. It made me cry. I know what all about that empty feeling. As I told you before my mom passed two months ago and I miss her terribly. I pray every day that Amos returns safely. I ask my mom to help guide him home.

Madison, WI

Hi Diane and Christine,

Thank you both so much for being there for Amos with your concerns, hopes, and prayers. Having a website that people all over the nation/world can access is the kind of exposure needed looking for a missing loved one. I can’t thank Emily & Kristin enough for creating Amos’ website immediately after we realized Amos was missing.

This site helps me get through each day that Amos doesn’t come home by reading posts from caring people like you who take the time to say that you saw Amos’ website online, will “light a candle” for him and "hold his hand" to help guide him back home to us.

I will share a moment with you: I had a dream about Amos on Thursday night. Gnosis was there with Amos and Amos was sitting in one of those Red Flyer-looking wagons. He had a t-shirt wrapped around his head in the fashion that guys do when they are outside working in the warm weather.

Later that day, I was telling a co-worker my dream and at the end of it I said how great it was to see Amos again. That statement and the flash of the scene in the dream hit me like a brick. How much I miss Amos I cannot convey in words, but I can say that I left the office, went out to my car and sat there and cried and cried. The emptiness of not having Amos in my life and the feelings of letting him down for not figuring out where he is by now...well, there are times when life feels unlivable.

Thank you again so much, as you know...your words, thoughts, and actions to help are so greatly appreciated by everyone that loves Amos.

Roslindale ( Boston ) Massachusetts

I came across this website while looking over other loved ones. I just want you and your family to know that I will pray for a safe return. God Bless oyu and your family.

I check this site weekly to see if Amos has returned home safely. I continue to forward the flyer and this website address to friends and family. Feel free to contact me if there is anything else I can do.

Madison, WI

Hi Dave,

I cannot express how much your comment lifted my spirit when I read what the manager (perhaps Kevin) stated regarding Amos’ flyer “staying up until he comes home!” My god, as little as that may seem to some people, it means a whole lot to Amos and me.

Thank you for posting your comments and for putting up flyers. I really do appreciate that and please, thank the manager of Pitcher’s Pub for me as well.

Deerfield

I had put Amos's flyer at pitchers pub off from badger rd when it was first released. Recently I was there with some co workers for a get together.I was happy to see that the flyers were still there and intact.When I spoke to the manager(I believe his name is kevin.)He said "There staying up untill he comes home!"Its refreshing to know people do care.
