I worked with Chris, and she was a lovely person. She was always so kind to me, and I looked forward to any reason to go see her. I grieve your loss.

Dr. Knowles, We are sorry to hear of your wife's passing. We are keeping you and your family in our prayers. We will continue to pray for all of you. Our deepest sympathy.

My memories of Chris are my treasures that no one can take away. I'll carry them with me till my own death. She was an extraordinary sister-in-law who was not only kind and giving, but she had a sense of humor that I loved. Her death was so sudden and so tragic that I'm having a very hard time dealing with it, so my heart goes out to her whole family and my brother, her husband, Scott. I love you all.

Dear Knowles Family,

I just wanted to extend my heartfelt condolences in the loss of your loved one! I pray God provides you the strength, comfort, love, and support to make it through this difficult time!

Chris was truly one of God's Angels!!! She was a sweet spirit...very giving, loving, friendly, willing to do anything for anyone, & one of the most unselfish people I met in my life. I could go on and on about how much of a BEAUTIFUL person she was!
