It has been so long ago that I last saw you and Larry. I was an usher in your wedding. You and Larry were such a wonderful team. I know you and Larry are in Heaven now but I never forget you. Christine, you and Larry were always so very kind and nice people, to me and everyone. At that time I knew your Mother and Father. I remember always going over to your house on main st Enfield Ct. everything else is a blur but I did catch the garter

Larry, Sena, and Family: May we continue to feel comforted by the continuous love and support we are getting from family and friends. What a great tribute to Chris to know how many lives she had touched as family, friend or acquaintances continue to reach out to us with a memory of how Chris affected their lives during her short journey on our earth. I fell blessed to have had a sister like Chris. I continue to wait for the phone to ring and know that it will ring no more; I miss her every day and hope that with prayer,time,love and support that together we will all get through this. May our hearts always be filled with wonderful memories of the good times we shared together, as we will always cherish and remember Chris.
Love to all Tammy

Larry, I'm so sorry you have lost your wife and partner of a lifetime. Sena, I'm sorry you had to lose your special mom so soon. To the whole family (and of course my dearest Hope), it's just unbelievable that such a vibrant, fantastic, hilarious, spunky woman has left this world and you all too, too early. I will miss her dearly, and am sorry I am not closer so I could come to her memorial, which sounded very lovely and very "Chris." Love, Kenwyn

To Chris's family. I graduated with her from Prince Tech. She was in fashon design and I was in hairdressing. The two groups mixed well together. We fledgling hairdressers were always perplexed with her hair color. It was always so blonde and we knew it couldn't be REAL! We bugged her for four years to tell us what she was using! We peered down on the top of her head at various times and none of us could ever see any regrowth! We were stumped! Finally, at our first twentieth reunion, she told me she had been adding peroxide to the shampoo! It was a great answer, and so worth the wait! We missed her this past October at our secound (fortieth) reunion.My heart goes out to all of you. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Larry, Sena & family,
Our deepest sympathy to you all in the passing of your beloved Chris. We will miss seeing her at the Springfield shows where we always knew we could count on her for a few laughs and some much appreciated help. It was always a joy to run into her and talk about our two "bully boys". Chris always remembered their names even tho it was 15 years ago (she always used to tell us that we picked great names for her "boys") . May God help you find peace and comfort during this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sena who can ever forget the crazy laughs I had with Chris.. champagne ring side at Boston shows!!!! No one made a dog show more fun for me than Chris. Those sparkling eyes.. ready for a little mischief and lots of laughs. She is surely entertaining all of her dog show buddies at that great Dog Show in Heaven!!! She will always be my Best in Show Gal.. I will miss her dearly!

Larry, my deepest sympathy goes out to you and yours. Christine went to school at Prince Tech with me and I can remember her beaming smile and eagerness to get things done. She was a fashion plate and had chosen her career as fashion designer, (so appropriate) for her at the time. I will always remember her very very long straight blonde hair, her maxy coat, crazy stockings and bright red beret. Let's not forget the crazy green sports car ! Our prayers go out to you.
