Not sure what to say?

Your bright spirit will always live in my heart. You were always more than just hair my stylist for 10 years, I considered you my friend as well. We shared more than most in those 3 to 4 hours every couple of months. Of course, you would say that it took that long because of my darn hair taking 4ever to process and dry. You were always "Wonder Woman" to me, and life truly will not be the same without you and you will be missed.

I and my family have known Chris for over 40 years...we lost touch for the last couple of years...she never complained, always upbeat...a real inspiration. Hard to believe that light has gone out.

What can I say? A real Beauty, inside & out. Proud to call her my friend. Sincere, caring & protective of her family. The best at her craft always thinking of others. A real loss to all that have the privilege to have known her.

Chris was our hairdresser and friend for almost 40 years! She was a wonderful person who cared deeply for her family and friends. She will be missed.

She was an inspiration to all who knew her... her courage, her strength, her big heart...her smile.. her laugh..her bright light that just shone from within will never be forgotten...was so hard to know how much pain she had been in for awhile now and that is the only thing that makes it easier... no pain and in a much better place... we will see her again..

You battled right to the end. No one can doubt your determination! I know you are no longer in pain. I also know you gave it your all. As much as it hurt me to let you go I know that you are in a better place and the sun is always shining. Thanks for all the fantastic memories. I love you Chris Smith. Until we meet again!

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. She is truly missed. She loved to share her love and life with all of her clients.
