Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • I remember you Chrissy, from way back when in the late 1950's and early 60's. I've thought of you SO often throughout the years and it warms my heart to hear about your life... that you enjoyed music and sports, had adventure, and got to laugh a lot it sounds like! I remember a visit when Adolf let me ride the pony. I remember you used to love to lock me in the outhouse (in the 50's) then laugh laugh laugh and run away and I'd have to wait for someone else to come let me out. Yeah, that was a blast for you :) I've wondered about you so much and so often ... I like to think that you'll be making beautiful and laughing music with the angels, angel that you are. My condolences go out to all of you family and loved ones of Chrissie's life. An old family friend who remembers Chrissy, and also remembers all of you as well. - Posted by: Carman Sinclair (Rosie's kid) (Family friend, one time playmate of Chrissie) on: Mar 30, 2012

  • To my chrissy bear. Thank you for being such an amazing person. Thank you for teaching me to live life to its fullest and enjoy all the little things. You helped me overcome many things in the past 5 years and I truly honestly do think I couldn't have made it through those things without you by my side telling me "it's ok girl". I know you are at the big boogie up in the sky. You're my girl forever and always... I love you! - Posted by: Brittany isfeld (Friend/care giver) on: Mar 27, 2012
