Christine M. "Chris" Lemke Keene

When I met Chris I thought she was the most wonderful gift from God a friend could have. Although, she and I were basically a 'friend of a friend' she would always treat me and everyone around her as if we were the best of friends. Her upbeat and inspiring personality was addictive; with Chris around, you were sure to have a happy day! God's blessings to her family; and thanks to God for blessing us all with Chris.

Chris and I worked on training workshops in the late 80s, and she would never let a moment turn dull. We rode buses with 30 men from around the country, and she would yell "This bus is too quiet!" and anything else to make the trip fun.

Our heartfelt condolences go to Chris' family.

We haven't seen Crissy in the past year but we have wonderful memories of her. She was our daughter's, (Sue McNabb Janowitsch), best friend from kindergarten until now. We have seen her grow up from a small child to a grown woman. Always full of fun and always with a smile. She will be missed by many.

I worked with with Chris on many occasion thru all her years at bowling HQ and she was very special to EVERY situation. Special thoughts and prayers to the family from Arizona.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

I was shocked and saddened to learn of Chris's passing. I had the pleasure of working with Chris from 1986 through 1988, and had spoken with her a number of times since leaving Greendale in 1988. Each time, we picked up like it had only been a few days since we last spoke, even when it was months and years.

She has an infectious sense of humor, and could see the positives of any situation.

She was one of the most wonderful people I've ever had the pleasure to work with.

I...

I worked with Chris long distance over the last two years. She was such a pleasure to work with, we would share stories of our families and laugh. We finally got to meet face to face last October when she came to Reno for a USBC event, our local Northern Nevada komen Affiliate greatly benefited from her tireless work on our behalf. My heart goes out to her family and friends she left behind. God Bless you Chris.

What a loss - having worked with Chris on several events and sharing the family atmosphere at HQ it was obvious that Chris was a loving, caring and dedicated person, with courage no one could match - her passing is a great tragedy. My prayers to her family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in your time of grief. May your many memories of Chris bring you comfort. She was an amazing person and lived her life to the fullest. She will be missed by many.
