Kristmas,
I miss so much about you. How many times do I want to check a date or family fact and you're not there to help me. More than anything you could make me laugh. I miss your quick wit and sense of irony. And of course I miss your love.

It's been one year without you and it seems like we lost you only yesterday. Everyday you cross my mind. I don't believe there will ever be a day that you won't. I miss you so very much and I count myself so very blessed to have been raised by someone with so much love and compassion. You are forever loved Mom.

Kristy, I miss seeing you and talking with you. Many times throughout this past year I've whispered your name and asked for guidance, counting on your angelic presence around me. I'm grateful our paths crossed. Thank you for what you taught me about compassion and unconditional love for others. Rest in Peace, Precious Friend....jgs.

Thinking of you Kristy Poo.

...... A lot of people passed away too early -- without a reason.
When we look at the sky -- we like the thought that they look back at us.
We remember them often -- in the morning -- in the night.
When we look at the stars...a date...a song...a place...a smell...in memory of those who left us. I know my mother is watching and my dad is Grinning ......:>)

We miss you Kristy.......

Today I celebrate your 64th birthday. I celebrate this day because your memory lives on despite the fact you were taken from us far too early. I miss you so much on days like this, but I know that you are with me in spirit no matter where I may be. I love and miss you so very much Mom!

Kris I miss you so very much. Today is your 64th and it's a little hard. This is a beautiful site Travis has created for you. One of the things I do is plan out what I would say if we just had one more hour together. It is a "favorite game." You always said you're never really gone until all the people who knew and loved you are gone, too. You are so right. Love, Kar

You were truly a blessing to know and work with. You will be missed!

That last tribute was from Marilyn Koedyker. 

My prayer is that Kristi is now at peace and free of pain.

Kristi, you left us way too soon. You were my partner as we fought our good fight against cancer. I will miss you every day, especially at our family dinners and holidays. I always looked forward to seeing you whenever I could. You are a very special person, and great Mom to Travis.

I only knew Kristy very briefly, but I feel blessed to have gotten to know such a sweet person. She made me feel very welcome and at home in a new job environment. Her sense of humor was so spontaneous and witty! Knowing how much difficulty she was dealing with during that time leaves me in awe of her truly cheerful spirit. My deepest condolences to those closest to her. She will be truly missed by many friends, new and old. God bless you in this difficult time.

Kristy had such a big heart and a beautiful smile. I have many fond memories of her and enjoyed the time I spent with her. She will be missed dearly.

I had the pleasure of knowing Kristy for just a short time but in that time we share plenty of conversations and laughs. She always was a blast to be around and said the cutest things that made me giggle. My daughter Bernadette worked with Kristy when she worked as a summer student and so enjoyed her. They would share their drawing/saying with each other. My deepest condolences to her son and family.

God bless and take you home Aunt Kristy i've always loved you and that contagous smile of yours , ill miss you .

She was a truly amazing person. She was a great example of how to love unconditionally and be compassionate towards others. She loved life, and embraced it wholeheartedly. We will miss her always.

Not one day passes that I don't remind myself to love others as you did. Your loving legacy will live on as long as I breathe. Your life was so well lived. I love you so very much Mom!

I love you Mom. I will miss you the rest of my days. I know you are in a better place now, but my selfishness still makes it so very hard to let go.
