Chrissy was truly one of THE funniest people I've known. Never afraid to call it as she sees it.
The stories are countless and will never be forgotten.
Our condolences to Bob, Kathleen and the rest of the family. She's truly missed.

Chris and I worked together for 7 years at Turtlewax. I considered Chris more than just a coworker. She was a mentor, confidante and friend. She was a joy to be around. I will miss her greatly. My sincerest condolences to Bob and Kathy. Chris was one of a kind!

I worked for Chris's father Ray and for Chris & Bob for many years. I loved her like family. My heart is broken in pieces. I was looking forward to her being a part of my life for years to come. Bob and Chris were the cutest couple and one of the few I know who were truly in love. They really LIVED life and made the most of every day. Chrissy my friend..I'll miss you tremendously and you will always have a place in my heart.
