Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Community Mourns the Loss of Young Athlete, Amber Fisgaer!
Born on December 4 as an identical twin sister to Ashley, Amber died unexpectedly on 24th December 2025.
Amber is now reunited with her mother, Carolyn Talbot, in heaven, who left this world a decade ago.
Her passing has not only brought grief to her twin sister, but all of her friends and teammates at HFU have been mourning.
Following her sudden demise, one of her friends shared a heartfelt post on Facebook expressing her sorrow and memories with Amber.
In the post, she writes:
Amber, you were the sweetest girl with a heart of pure gold. You had the most beautiful smile that could brighten up anyone’s day. Amber was the most compassionate, kind hearted person ive ever known, the type who’d take the shirt off her back for anyone. I go back to freshman year of high school, us sitting in art class talking about our favorite bands and having fangirl moments, laughing at my terrible artwork, or even when we’d go to get hot chocolate. The times we went to the mall, or the movies. I’m praying for the Fisgaer family, and sending all of my love. Rest easy Amber
While the community mourns, they also seem to support the Fisgaer family through a fundraising campaign.
Many have expressed their sorrow and offered support to the Fisgaer family with donations they could afford.
The funds collected from the campaign will help Amber’s twin sister cover the funeral and burial services for her beloved sister, who now rests with her mother in heaven.
During this difficult time for the Fisgaer family, we would also like to express our heartfelt condolences to Amber’s family, friends, and everyone who knew her.
Rest in peace, beautiful soul!
