I am filled with grief as I read the obituary. Kirsten was my student at Calvin College/University. I remember when she got the teaching position at GH Chr. I believe she'd been disappointed when she applied elsewhere and wasn't chosen for that position, but God has His plan in mind and she was blessed to be a blessing by remaining in the area and teaching at GR Chr.

Dear Mary, sorry to hear about Kirsten. It has been a long time since the days of Oak Park. I am so happy in reading that she had a love of God and was passing that on to the next generation. You are in my prayers and thoughts. May God give you strength in the upcoming weeks.

She was an amazing teacher. She visited each child at home before school started. She understood their interests and remembered even after they had moved on. She will be SO missed. She always had time to say hi when she stopped into the kitchen where I worked.

Dear Family of Kirsten: So very sorry for your loss! I had the extreme pleasure of being a friend and co-worker at GHCS with Kirsten. I looked so forward to walking down the elementary hall and having her door still be open. We had many laughs and tears together. We shared special prayer warrior time together. What a fantastic spirit she had. May God comfort you in your days ahead. Sincerely: Mary [Peterson] Salisz night time custodian.

Doug, I am very sorry for your loss. Kirsten was always very cordial and one of the few neighbors who would speak or wave. She will be missed.

Of so many fond memories at GHCS, one that shines is when Kirsten would be standing at her classroom door waving a checkered flag when one of her students crossed a finish line in Xtra Math; she was so proud of each and every accomplishment by her kids! She has brought joy to so many; well done, Good and Faithful servant.
