Its hard to say something about Chris. I knew her from an online game we both played. She registered now and then and always tried to find me. She and I became friends, maybe also because we were a bit of the same age in a game where the average age is way younger.
She always remembered to ask me about my children and dogs. The last conversation we had ingame was February 08, where she told me her health was not good. I never thought to hear a few days later she died.
Rest in peace Chris, I will always remember you as Mercury.
My condolances to Chris family and I hope you can find the strength to overcome this loss.
Much hugs from The Netherlands.

As many know Chris was adopted. She found her real family in the early 90's. It was the best thing that happened to us all.
My sister Chris had an enormous heart.
As sisters we bonded immediately. We took many trips together
I thank God I had many happy years with her.
I love her, I miss her. She will ALWAYS have a place in my heart.

God certainly has gained an Angel. She had a huge heart and loved helping people and animals. I met Chris over 20 years ago on an online game. We grew very close. We laughed and cried together. I will miss her so much. My deepest condolences to all of her loved ones.
