Christine Bush was one of the best professors I've ever had at bucks community college. She made this semester amazing. Not only was she very kind towards us who have differences, but she treated everyone with respect in the classroom. I'm so sorry for the family's loss. Great memories I shared with her were the thirty minutes before the 12:15 class. Me, her, and a friend would sit down chatting about her grandchildren, our lives, the long drive we both had to do from Allentown, and anything that came to mind. She spoke highly of her family as we talked a lot of the time, mentioned with proudness that she had of some of her family members in college. I'm so happy to have met such a caring and special person such as Christine Bush. Her kindness and genuine care will always hold a special place in my heart, and I will cherish the memories we shared forever.

Chrissy was an amazing professor. She truly cared about each and every one of her students. She was filled with hope and inspired me very much this semester. She was such a kind woman who wanted everyone to know how important they are. She was filled with greatly inspiring stories about her many children and grandchildren. And she was so proud of all of them. I feel very lucky to have gotten Chrissy as my teacher this semester. She taught me so many important things about psychology as well as life as a whole. I may have only known her for one semester, but she truly made an impact on my life. She taught me that anything is possible and to never give up. I feel very lucky to have gotten the chance to have had Chrissy as a professor. My heart goes out to everyone who knew the amazing lady that Chrissy was, and I hope she knows how important she is.
