Amy Eskridge Obituary

A brilliant mind left us when Amy Catherine Eskridge went to her eternal rest in the Lord on Saturday, June 11, 2022. At just age 34, Amy already had a beautiful vision for life and the cosmos. She had a genius for science and questioned the conventional wisdom on everything from the universe to the nanoparticles of the atom. She was also an astute entrepreneur as Chairwoman and President of The Institute for Exotic Science in Huntsville, AL, which she co-founded. Amy's passion for space grew from childhood in The Rocket City. After her graduation from UAH with a double major in chemistry and biology, she became an interdisciplinarian and a master of electrical engineering, chemistry, physics, genetic engineering, and nanotechnology. Amy is survived by her parents, Kathy and Richard Eskridge, brothers Matt and Michael Eskridge (Victoria). Amy was proceeded in death by her grandparents, Margaret and Russel Vance, and Marcella and Charles Eskridge. Amy lived a life full of passion and wonder for the cosmos, and she was deeply loved by all who knew her. Her dear friend Sam Reid, CEO of Geometric Energy Corporation, is naming the company's next Earth Orbit satellite and their DOGE-1 payload headed for the moon in October for Amy. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you donate in the name of Amy Eskridge to your favorite charity. The family will hold a celebration ceremony of Amy's life at 2 PM Sunday July 10 at Huntsville West, 3001 9th Ave SW, Huntsville, AL 35805.
