Christina Musil Obituary

Christina M. Musil
Born: August 17, 1988
Died: March 29, 2024
In Loving Memory of Deputy Christina M. Musil, of the Dekalb County Sheriff's Department.
It is with profound sadness that we announce the tragic passing of Deputy Christina M. Musil in the early hours of Friday, March 29, 2024. Affectionately called "Beana," by all who knew and loved her, Beana was performing her duties on the shoulder of the highway when she was struck from behind by a semi truck. As a dedicated servant to her community, Christina was a respected deputy of the sheriff's department and a brave Army veteran, having served four years in the National Guard as military police. Her commitment to her country was further demonstrated through her courageous tour in Afghanistan from 2008-2009.
Born on August 17, 1988, Beana was a beacon of joy and resilience, she was a loving mother to her three beautiful children: Zoe Musil, 12 years old, Genevieve Musil 11 years old, Cillín Musil 5 years old, and a caring companion to their beloved puppy, Skiba. Beana's magnetic personality, laughter, and selfless spirit were a testament to the incredible woman she was. As a daughter to Philip and Diane Caporaso, a cherished sister to Bridgette and Anthony Caporaso, a beloved niece, cousin, and friend to so many, Beana's unique and silly personality touched everyone she met, making an indelible mark on their hearts. Beana had a fervent love for sports, rooting passionately for the Yankees and the Devils, although it was her children's sporting events where her true fandom could be witnessed. Her ability to light up a room with her humor, coupled with her unwavering commitment to the well-being of others, defined her as a truly remarkable individual.
Though we mourn the loss of Beana's physical presence, her soul's light and the echo of her laughter will continue to reside within us forever. Christina's legacy of kindness, bravery, love and humor will remain as a beacon of hope and strength for all who knew her.
A public visitation will be from 10:00 am -12:00 pm on Thursday April 4, 2024. A service to celebrate Christina's life and her legacy will be held at the Convocation Center of Northern Illinois University at 1:30 pm, following the visitation.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to a trust fund set up for her children's education and future needs, details of which can be found at Support for the Children of Deputy Christina Musil, organized by Family of Christina Musil.

My sincerest condolences to the family, which includes the DeKalb County Sheriff´s Dept for their loss. From a mother´s perspective it is the worst seat in the house to attend a child´s funeral. Know that Christina is above the clouds amongst all heroes and in our hearts.

I didnt know Christina personally, but she pulled me over 2 months ago when I was driving super slow due to car troubles. She was so kind and understanding, even offering to follow me home to make sure I got there safe. It was a short interaction, but it meant so much to me especially after a long, hard day. Rest in peace Christina!
