Christie M. Ladestro

Dear John & Kirsten,

We have just heard of your loss. We want you both to know that we care! We are very sad and shocked by Christie's passing. We have cried many tears and shared a few smiles as we reminisced about John washing the car or truck, while Christie and Kirsten sat outside and supervised, colored the driveway with chalk, ate chocolate pudding or strolled on the sidewalk.

Do you need a listening ear? If yes, please call (901-860-0412) we are...

I worked with Christie for about 5 years. She was a very happy and upbeat person. I miss her smiling face and cheerful greeting ever time I saw her. My heart goes out to her family.

I remember last July Christie and I dragged our husbands out to a Toby Keith concert. We danced and sang the words to all of his songs as he sang them to us. Our husbands seemed rather confused but we had a great time.

How could it be that a little more than 2 months later Christie would be ripped from us.

She was so full of life and so defiant straight through to the end.

Christie, I miss you every day. My heart goes out to you and John and Kirsten and all...

I am so sorry to hear the news about Christie. I lived down the street from Nelson's next to Tracy Reynolds, Todd was in my
class. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

I cannot even express how I miss my wife. Life is to short and extremely unfair. I look forward to the challenge of raising our daughter.

I have never met a more sincere person than Christie. She always gave a big smile to brighten your day. She is an inspiration to all of us and it has been truly a pleasure to know her in this life.

We will be praying for you and your family. Her spirit will shine in many hearts.

with sympathy, The Richardson Family

We are so, so sorry for your loss. Todays service was lovely and very moving. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help. Our thoughts are with you and your beautiful little Kirsten.
