Not sure what to say?

My sympathies to your family. My husband Ron and I are neighbors to Christine's parents. (Redbud Circle) We are not acquainted with them but as neighbors, and parents of two daughters we can only imagine your grief at the loss of your "favorite daughter". Please know your family is in our prayers.

I am writing to express my sympathy to the whole Zmudka family. Tom, I didn't know you -- but I grew up with "Christy".

A long brave fight has ended and Chris is at peace. She gave much to many and will be missed. We only had a couple chances to be in her person but she was an enjoyable person to be with. Barb and Lee shared much with us about her. We will have the family in our prayers as they experience this loss. Let the good memories of Chris be a healing for you.

Their are people that god gives us to make the world a better place.Chris's spirit, love, courage and compassion will live forever through the people she touched. She always said "the world needs more purple people"

She is the kind of person who would like to be put on your list of “OK” people. That seemed to be what she wanted. Her art at home was brave and colorful and promising, much like herself.

I offer my sympathy and prayers to the family and my friend, Bob. Take care of each other and know Chris is at peace.

Our thoughts are with you.

Tom,
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
Please let me know if there is anything that I can do for you.
God bless,
Emily
