Chris turned her love of beading and knitting into a small business making handcrafted jewelry, purses, and other beautiful works of art.

The last few years, she enjoyed being a snowbird. However, what especially brought her joy was the time spent with family and friends. Mass of Christian Burial will be 10:30 a.m., Mon.
