I loved Kristy's sass. She had such a fun sense of humor that you were drawn to. She would tackle whatever issue that came up and handled it with such finesse. She was a fellow 'foodie' and always made me drool with the descriptions of the great dishes she would cook. Holidays at her house were a grand affair. She took such pride in her matching dish ware for the various seasons. She had such fine tastes. I had to laugh at her purse fetish. She did love her purses. Her compassion and concern for others will be very missed. She was a truly great lady and we all are blessed to know her.

I have so many fond memories of growing up with you and going to the new Menan Elementary School. The slumber party at Tammie Cox's house was especially fun. See you in eternity.

Kristy was a good friend to many. She always had a smile and a laugh to get our spirits up. We have many great memories of her both from work and outside of work. A wonderful lady.

Robert, Chris, and Cade I'm so sorry for your loss. Your Mom was an amazing woman. Even though you may not remember m, I feel like I know all 3 of you. She was always talking about you, especially the trips that you all took together. I enjoyed time visiting with her while doing her hair over the years as well as working with her at Artco. When I worked at Artco no matter how bad my day was she would always make me smile or help me out how ever she could. She wilI be greatly missed. I recently moved to Iowa and won't be able to make it Friday but my thoughts are with all of you.

I worked with Kristy for many years at Artco. For a few years (can't remember how long) Kristy and I along with some friends would get together for activities such as bowling, crafts and games like "Never have I ever". Kristy was fun, easy for me to work with and had an infectious laugh. I'm so glad I knew her.
