Piper Grace Amundson's Obituary
Piper Grace Amundson defied all odds making her entrance into the world on Wednesday, January 24, 2024 at 6:18 pm at 4 lbs with tons of spunk. She passed away peacefully in the loving arms of her mother (Kelley) and father (Jesse) on Monday, February 19, 2024 at 11:45 pm. Piper graciously gifted us 26 days to get to know her, love her, share her wisdom with us, and introduce her to our family.
After 3 weeks in the NICU at Hemby Children’s Hospital, Piper was strong enough to come home on Valentine’s Day to meet her big sister and brother, Aster (5) and Henry (3). They loved her and helped with everything Piper needed and wanted. She thrived at home for 5 days and was loved and comforted every minute of her time with us. She leaves behind a beautiful legacy of love and gratitude.
A funeral mass will be held at St. Mark Catholic Church in Huntersville, NC on Wednesday, February 28, 2024 at 1:00 pm with the burial following at Northlake Memorial Gardens. The family will receive family, friends and visitors at the Hunter House from 3-6 pm. All who wish to celebrate and remember Piper are welcome to attend any or all services.
