Kristie Lyn Brunker

Dear Brunker Family,
We just learned of your loss. Mrs. Brunker had two of our children, Julian and Taylor, in her preschool class at Heritage. Our family has many great memories of her, and remember her fondly when we reflect back on those precious years. She gave a great start to many, many children over the years. The fruits of her labors may never be fully known, but rest assured that she has sown the seeds of kindness, acceptance, and love in all who knew her. You will be in our...

I remember high school drill team performances together, reconnecting at church after 20 years, Kristie's amazing creativity (especially with t-shirt design) and leadership of VBS crafts, how she taught me that the "doing" is the important thing, the way she could get my shy daughter to want to go to Sunday School, her listening ear and kindhearted advice, her tremendous strength during difficult times, the total joy she felt in Julie and Stephanie.

Dear Brunker Family

This is Reese and Tyler Spangler. We were both in her 4 year old preschool class and just found out about your loss. We justed wanted to let you know how sorry we are. Even all these years later your mother was our favorite teacher and we have always thought about her. We even remember her daughters coming to class to help her. We thought that was alot of fun. Your mom was a great person and will be missed by us forever.

Love,

Reese and Tyler...
