To Kristens family and friends My sincere condolences about Kristens passing. Words cannot describe the devastation I feel because of this tragedy. Kristen was a very dear friend of mine. We worked together for three years and our friendship continued even after she had to leave my classroom. She was a beautiful person and I will miss her tremendously. She was adored by all who knew and worked with her. Staff and students enjoyed being a part of her life. She was very dedicated to our students and the teachers she worked with. We all loved her and respected her. Her smile will always be in my heart and her laugh will forever ring in my ears.
I also worked with Kristen and am still in shock that she is gone. She always had a cheerful heart and smile on her face. Kristen was a role model to me. Every day we worked together there was encouragement spoken by both of us and I felt a bond. I am now a theology student and she did have a servant's heart. When my boys were baptized, she took the time and came out to the service. I will never forget this act of Christ's love. I will never forget her, ever!
