Danielle, Nicole and Harold, We are so sorry for your loss. We were so inspired by how selflessly you took care of your Mom/ Wife during her illness. Your love and devotion to her was apparent through your actions. I know how great of a woman Christine must have been to raise such wonderful women as Danielle and Nicole. She lives on through the two of you. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time. Love, Susan and Brian Przystawski

So sorry for your loss. Chris was an awesome lady and one of the nicest and sweetest people I have ever known. Chris and family took me in during a very rough period in my life. She comforted me and listened to me as I worked through things. Always offering optimism and encouragement. I’m sad she is gone, but happy to always have such great memories with all of you. Much love to you Harold, Nicole and Danielle.
