Amanda Lee Carter

BURDINE, KY – Amanda Lee Carter, 35, left us far too soon Saturday 

November 7, 2026, due to injuries sustained in an automobile accident.

Amanda was a passionate and caring soul, she lived a life overflowing

with vibrant love, fierce dedication and a bright infectious joy. Whether

she was caring for her kids, rescuing an animal, tending to her plants and

flowers, making her viewpoint known or doing her everyday job she poured

her whole heart into everything she touched. Amanda was laid back and

humble, till you crossed her, then she was fierce. She would not back down

and would fight a buzzsaw. Her favorite saying was “I got this” and it her

motto for how she lived her life.

 Above all else Amanda was a devoted and fiercely loving mother to her

children Scarlett and Lincoln. Her greatest pride and truest masterpiece in

this life are the children she adored. Her laughter, gentle hugs, and unwavering 

warmth will live on in them every single day.

Amanda was preceded in death by her parents Marty and Denita (Kiser)

Carter; her brother Michael Wayne Hayes and her grandparents Kenneth

and Doris (Holbrook) Hall and her grandfather Roy Kiser.
