Obituary of Amanda Bright Robinson

LEXINGTON—Amanda Bright Robinson, 42, passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family on Saturday, July 2, 2022, at Lexington Medical Center. Born on December 17, 1979, to Nelson and Phyllis Adams Bright, she leaves behind her husband, Brooks.  

In addition to her husband and parents, she is survived by a sister, Tracey Bright of Lexington; a twin brother, Brian Bright (Misty) of Lexington; parents-in-law, Teresa and Sonny Robinson of Lexington; a sister-in-law, Courtney DuPree (Tim) of Lexington; a brother-in-law, Shea Robinson of Charleston; nephews, Julian Cruz, Ty Walker, Damian Walker, and Ashton Bright; nieces, Angelina Walker and Callie Bacot. She was predeceased by both sets of grandparents; and her special pet dog, Jasmine.  

Amanda was a pure soul. She was many things to many people. She was a loving, caring wife. She was a compassionate and caring medical assistant. She lived to help others. In spite of her diagnosis, she was a strong-willed, positive-thinking fighter. She never gave up. Amanda was truly an inspiration to anyone in her presence. Her smile lit the room, and her laugh was contagious. She enjoyed seeing the world, especially visiting the beach and mountains. Dancing with her SKA Fitness family was one of her joys. Above all, she cherished her family and friends.  

A funeral service will be held at 1 p.m. on Friday, July 8, 2022, at Thompson Funeral Home of Lexington. The family will receive friends prior to the service from 11:00 A.M. until 1:00 P.M. on Friday. A private burial service will take place at Woodridge Memorial Park at a later time.
