Trot Insider has learned that Amanda Harris of East Windsor, N.J., passed away on February 15, 2020 at the age of 34.

An owner of Standardbreds, Amanda is the wife of trainer Andrew Harris. Amanda was diagnosed with a stage III case of breast cancer in March 2015. Her treatments began in April and after 12 rounds of chemotherapy doctors reported her tumour had shrunk significantly. In late July, doctors performed a bilateral mastectomy and were able to remove the remainder of the cancerous growth from Amanda's chest, breast, and armpit.

After battling the disease for more than 18 months, Harris was notified in 2018 that the cancer had returned, with metastatic breast cancer found in her neck, scapula and femur.

Amanda is survived by her husband Andrew, daughters Grace and Kinsley.

Service arrangements for Amanda Harris will be held on Tuesday, Feb. 18 at Peppler Funeral Home in Allentown, NJ. Visiting hours will be held from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Funeral Services will begin at 6 p.m.

Please join Standardbred Canada in offering condolences to the family and friends of Amanda Harris.
