Chris grew up in Biddeford Maine where she met her sole mate, Robert. Married in 1958; they made California their home where they raised their family and made many friends. Her passion in life was her family. She was very involved in raising three generations. One of her most recent joys was lying in bed with her great grandson Nathaniel, talking and eating popcorn and watching videos. She loved the Lord, was the family genealogist, enjoyed gardening and reading as well as taking extended cross country trips in the motor home with her husband Robert and their dog Katie. Her cheerful spirit, zest for life and concern for others, earned her a special place in the hearts of all those who knew her. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends. Words cannot express the void we feel since she left us, but we look forward to when we will reunite in the heavens above. WE LOVE YOU!
