I met Kristen over 4 years ago at a Part time job we shared . I liked her from the 1st day I met her .Her smile, her laughter, her generosity. She was magnetic,I treasure the time I had with her. Today I heard the most horrible devastating news. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Kristen had an amazing personality and always put a smile on my face when we worked together at Resources for Human Development. Driving to Philly for the trainings, meeting up at the St. Patty's Day Parade in Hoboken, and doing fieldwork all day are just some of the memories that I have. She will definitely be missed.

I will always remember Kristen from her days at DePaul. She had the most beautiful smile and made you feel good just being near her. The world has lost a wonderful person with Kristen's passing.
