While hearts are heavy, I know Kristina and Gabby are with God the father. I know we will unite with them in heaven, Amen! It’s our prayer that God wrap his loving arms around the family and co-workers, friends, providing comfort and strength in the days to come. Kristina we knew through 1st.

I am so sorry to hear this Terrible news. I just talked to Kristina on the 4th of this month when I called in to make my payment. She was always so sweet and happy with life and doing everything she could to help me with my loan and getting me the best deal she could bc she knew how important it was. I’ll never forget the last time I saw her when I signed the papers for my car loan and we all went outside to take a pic of my car and she was so excited to get a picture on her cell of this little lizard with a funny colored blue tail!!!! I loved her optimism and her sweet nature. R.I.P. Kristina and sweet little Gabby
I wish I could take all of this pain and sorrow from you.
Words seem so feeble in times like these
Life is so precious
and death such a thief
The depth of your pain I cannot comprehend
Love is a bond
That death cannot part
They are gone from your arms
But still in your heart
My deepest condolences for you all as you process this tragic loss. May the good memories bring you peace and comfort.
You will be truly missed sweet lady.
You will be truly missed sweet lady.Prayers for all.
