I'm sorry I couldn't have been there for you more Kristen. We spent time together inside and outside of work, but I didn't know how to exist in your life. I was too caught up in my own. It saddens me greatly to just now here about your passing and have missed the wake.

Goodnight, Travel Well, Kristen.

I am terribly sorry to hear of this shocking news. Kristen was a great person. My brother and I (the twin fishes) went to junior high and high school together with her. I even think we went to elementary school together. She was always considerate of others and very talented. We wish the family all the best and we keep you in our prayers.
