Chrystelle came into my life when I started my first teaching job at Dulaney HS. I hosted many student teachers from Goucher over the years. Chrystelle hired me to teach the Secondary Methods course for Dance Education and asked me to serve on the Off Campus Advisory Board to Goucher“s Dance Dept. She fully supported the Maryland Public High School Dance Showcase and helped in many ways over the years including hosting the event at Goucher. She was a friend, a mentor, we shared our undergraduate alma mater-UNC-G, and had an enormous impact on dance education. Passionate, devoted, builder of relationships, and a skilled teacher. Thank you, Chrystelle

We met Chrystelle when we moved to Campus Hills and became good friends. We walked our dogs together and had many great dinners out with them. We went to the dance shows at Goucher. We moved to florida in 2011 and kept in touch. When we had trouble getting in touch with her I sadly found this obituary today. She will be very missed.

Mrs Bond was my first modern dance teacher at Goucher 1986. I was a ballet and jazz dancer until that time. I remember my first modern class and thinking What the heck is this?! And wow, this feels pretty good! simultaneously!!! 4 years later I became a professional dancer with Carolyn Dorfman Dance Company. Thank you, Mrs. Bond, for sharing your love, talents and passion with us!

Fond memories of the Trump family attending Aunt Chrystelle's dance recitals at Goucher during the 1960's

Even though Chrystelle started the dance program at Goucher College, and I started the dance program at Towson University we always had the utmost respect for one another. She was very dedicated to her profession and to her husband, Tim. Now she is with him - may they both rest in peace with one another.

As a little girl, I grew up seeing Aunt Chrystelle as the life of the party. She always invited us to watch The Nutcracker at Goucher, some of my fondest memories. She is greatly loved and missed.

A mentor, a friend, a role model for dance education at its best, a brilliant historian and archivist for dance, a true heroine. Will be dearly missed.

cannot say enough about Mrs. Bond. Danced with her, taught with her, fought with her, got my PhD because of her. She was a huge part of my life. May not have stayed in touch lately, but will never forget the Bondelasaurus (said most lovingly). Shes with Tim now.
