Amber was born on April 2, 1995, in Cambridge, Minnesota. She attended school in Braham and graduated from Cambridge High School. She spent most of her life in the Cambridge area where she built deep connections with family and friends.
Amber worked as a Personal Care Attendant, a role that reflected her natural instinct to care for others. She was someone who showed up for people, checked in often, and gave what she could to make sure those around her were okay.
Amber will be remembered for her vibrant and unmistakable personality. She was full of life, energy, and emotion. She was loving, bold, and passionate, with a presence that filled a room the moment she walked in. She had a way of making people laugh, even when they didn’t feel like it, and she brought a sense of connection and belonging to those around her. She loved her family deeply, especially her daughters. Amber was a fun and devoted mom who embraced life with her girls. She loved creating moments with them, whether that meant dressing them up, treating them to their favorite things, or simply enjoying time together.
Amber also found joy in the simple things. A stop at Caribou Coffee, time with family, cooking or baking when the mood hit, and staying connected to the many people she cared about. She lived life fully and felt things deeply, and those who knew her will never forget the way she showed up in their lives.
She is survived by her daughters, Skye (4) and Adeline (8 months), who were the center of her world; her parents, Amy (Jason) Stonehouse and Manny (Tisa) Shellito; her fiancé, Ryan Weber; her siblings, Destiny (Ben) Reed, Devin (Brandi) Shellito, and Haeli Sampson; and her grandparents, William and Beverly Barthel.
Dearest Amy, my heart breaks for you and your family. No words. Just know that I am and will be with you as you journey through the storm that none would ever want to go through. No not ever. Gods peace that passes all understanding I pray for you and yours. Grief goes on forever and for everyone is different. Do not do this alone.
Here for you praying, Leslie
Amber, my beautiful cousin. My childhood is filled with memories with you at your house in Braham, camping, living with you in Princeton, and never missing a family event whether it be a reunion or a funeral. I am going to miss you and my heart hurts so much for those closest to you who still need you. I know Juno, Sherry, Skip, our great grandparents and others were waiting for you with open arms. You’re in good hands until we see you again. Rest peacefully sweet Amby.
Amber, you were a shining light at a pivotal time in my life. I pray for your family and your babies, that they heal and are able to remember the beautiful memories I’m sure you shared. Light Heaven up, my dear. 🌹

I met Amber in August, and had the pleasure of working with her and her girls every week. She loved making hand print and foot print art with the girls, and always had the cutest photos of them for each holiday. She was someone who literally sparkled, and was the perfect blend of sugar and spice. She introduced me to Curvlife nails and diamond art, and gave me the ins and outs of using chatGPT. I feel honored to have known her. She will be deeply missed.
I’m so deeply sorry for your loss. Amber was always such a bright, kind presence, and it was so clear how much she loved her daughters. Keeping your family in my thoughts and sending so much love 🤍
