So sorry to see this, I carry several fond memories of Kris during our tenure attending Reid School in our early pre teen years. Lots of laughs, slumber party shenanigans...she was a beautiful girl...and lots of fun. My sympathy to the family, rest peacefully Ole friend.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Please take comfort in the words found at 2nd Thessalonians 2:16,17.
