I was saddened to hear this news, my thoughts are with your family, especially Meredi and James.

I got to know Kristine as I worked for her for many years. Kristine was a very smart and special woman. Kristine always talked about her children and her grandchildren, she was very proud of her family, and I am sure she will be missed.

I want to thank you Kristine for being the kind woman that you were and for teaching me all that you did, may you rest in peace.

I met Kristine about 15 years ago when I worked at Richcraft and have kept in touch with her over the years. I liked her right away she had such a great sence of humour. You will be missed Kristine.

I knew Kristine when she worked at the law firm of Cogan & Cogan. She took me under her wing as a co-op student. She was a wonderful teacher and a very nice person. I am sure she will be missed by her family and all who knew her. Thank you Kristine for being such an inspiration to me. May you rest in peace.
