I fondly remember hours and hours of walking the neighborhood with Chris during our middle school and high school years. We never ran out of things to talk about. I am shocked at her passing. Even though it’s been more years than I can possibly believe, I remember her smile, her personality and I hold wonderful memories of those days. My thoughts and prayers are with you. With Deepest Sympathies, Kelley Jones Fleming

I knew Chris for a short time, but in that time, she was so much fun to be around. She was kind, and thoughtful and funny. There was never a dull moment when she walked through that door. I know for a fact, the minute she walked through the gates of heaven , she was smiling and having a great time with those who passed before her. I want her family to know, that you all are in my thoughts and my prayers in your time of sorrow. Please accept my deepest sympathy to you all.
