What's this about a random act of kindness?

In lieu of flowers the family asked that each person do an act of kindness on Amanda’s behalf. So reports of these random acts started streaming in from across the world (literally from New Mexico to Alaska to Japan!) These demonstrations have brought such joy and hope it is a fitting addition to the legacy of Amanda Byrne. Let's see how far this can spread together!
