Words from Tom
Chrissy
my big sister
took care of me,
looked out for me.
played with me
from childhood to adulthood
all the good times,
and helped me through the troubled times as she was there for everyone -
from doctors to patients
Mom and Dad and friends
she has given me great memories
all our times together
and inspired me by example
to give to and help others in
need in many different ways.
Kind, generous, dependable, one of a kind. Your friendship will be dearly missed.
Chris - dearly loved - dearly missed!
I met Chris playing racquetball in 1982. We played regularly for years. We attended the Harvest Festival together, a tradition that continued for 38 years. We enjoyed lots of laughs, chocolate, lunches, birthday celebrations and shopping. She was the most loyal friend and I’m gonna miss her terribly!
I met Chris while volunteering at Lindsay Wildlife 13 years ago. Our friendship grew from there. I'll always remember her favorite lunch dishes, Macy's shoes, See's chocolates...always celebrating milestones and loving HOT days! She genuinely cared about people and was always very kind. Chris was such a good friend to me and I am so sad she is gone. But she'll forever be in my heart.
Chrissy
She loved, she was loved. I know someone she loved, and they know what love is and they know how to help others. The good life is giving.
My soul is from elsewhere, I’m sure of that, and I intend to end up there. Rumi
