My deepest condolences to the Michalik family. Chris was my neighbor and friend for about 7 years. She was like a mother to me and will be greatly missed.

To Christine's Family: A life taken too soon. I remember Chris as a sweet loveable person. I served with her on the Parish Council. We had a good time when we sang together in the St. Florian Anniversary Choir. She always had a kind word for everyone and never complained about her illness. She will be greatly missed by the St. Florian parish family. Remembering all the good times you had with her will hopefully ease you breaking hearts.
