I could not have asked for a better mother-in-law. Chris is just so classy and loving. Immediately she welcomed me into her family. She absolutely loved her two grandsons (Logan and Grant) always interested in anything and everything the guys were up to. We will miss her so so much but find comfort knowing that she is at peace and with John.
Her smile and her concern will be with us always and we shall cherish those memories.

Sending my love and prayers to all impacted by the passing of Chris. I grew up with Chris around as a dear family friend. John, Chris, my Mom and Mike were best buddies. Their friendship was strong & lasting. I have many wonderful memories of Chris participating in important and happy days in my life. My family was blessed by her presence and love too.??????
