Amy Redden, 47, of North Platte, Nebraska, passed away on June 24, 2026, in North Platte surrounded by her loving family.
Amy was born on March 4, 1979, in Atkinson, Nebraska, to Larry and Jean (Schafer) Baumeister. She graduated from Stuart High School in 1997 before continuing her education at Mid-Plains Community College and later earning her degree from the University of Nebraska at Kearney in 2005.
On September 17, 2005, Amy married the love of her life, Scott Redden, in North Platte. Together they built a life centered on faith, family, and supporting their children's many activities.
Amy dedicated her career to serving others, working for the Boys and Girls Home of Nebraska and later with the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services. She had a caring heart and was passionate about helping those in need.
Above all else, Amy treasured her family. She loved attending her children's sporting events, dance activities, and Boy Scouts. She was an enthusiastic fan of Nebraska Cornhusker football and volleyball, enjoyed reading, and loved traveling. Some of her favorite memories included traveling to London, Edinburgh, and Paris in 2005, visiting Grand Haven, Michigan through Little Pink Houses of Hope with fellow breast cancer patients, and attending Camp Koru in Hawaii with other cancer survivors. These experiences reflected both her adventurous spirit and remarkable strength.
