Christopher Mentzer Butt

Bob, Jenny, Nick and Sammy,
What a treasure she was...always teaching, giving, smiling and sharing. She will be forever remembered for all the great things she did for everyone. She had such a great impact on those lives she came into contact with that she will not be forgotten. We should all honor her memory by remembering to keep loving family, friends and all those we meet....unconditionally just as she did. Also, by being dedicated to helping and giving just as she did... freely...

Growing up with Chrissy made my chilhood days extra happy. She was kind, caring and fun, even as a kid. We lost contact with one another after getting married, as I moved away, but I have never forgotten her. She will always be in my heart as a best friend in my life.

She was one of the few people I felt comfortable opening up do without finding myself regretting it later on. I really won't ever forget sitting in her office a little over five years ago. Her genuine compassion is one of the things that gave me hope for the future when things got especially dark. My thoughts are with her family and friends; I can't imagine how difficult this is for them.

I've been graduated for 12 years and still remember the encouragement and warm advice she gave all those years ago. She was a great counselor and we were all priviledged to have her. All our best thoughts.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Chris' family. Although its been quite a few years since I saw her, I always remember her as kind and thoughtfull. She will be truely missed.

Thanks to all who created and spoke at yesterday's moving and heartfelt tribute to Chris. It was a start to what will be a slow and challenging healing process for all of us. My life was enriched by having had the privilege to know her.
