I am truly sorry for your loss, she was my best friend and you all were my second family. I will continue to pray for us all to have strength and try to smile each day because that is what Crit would have wanted once again I am so sorry.

Crit, I already miss you so much. We had so many fun times together. I will miss the baking for sure! Life will not be the same without you. I have to remember that one day we will be together again. I am sure until then you will be watching over me and rolling your eyes and shaking your head at what crazy thing I might be doing or saying. I love you so much!

When I first met Christy three years ago, I knew there was something different about her. Her laugh was contagious and she always had a smile on her face. She was one special woman. I am very blessed to have spent the time that I had with her and be able to work side by side with her. She was one heck of a fighter and such a strong woman. I know she is up there with our other loved ones making cupcakes for them. Just remember she is always with us and watching over us now. I love you Christy and you will be in my heart and thoughts forever.

I will never forget growing up together and all the fun memories made. You have forever made an impact on my life Crit more then you'll ever know. One of the memories was you getting Anya the little monkey that looked like my monkey from growing up cause man you knew I loved that monkey! I still can't believe this is real!!! I know you are no longer suffering or in pain but it hurts so bad! I will forever miss you and make sure you help James watch over Anya and I as well! I love Crit <3

Krit was an amazing person who loved life. I've known her for 7 years and she was my best friend and the sister I never had. We went to YTI together for pastry and after we graduated we never lost touch. Although distance seperated us we always managed to get together as many times as we could for lunch at the Cheesecake Factory and shopping at king of Prussia. You were a strong person and for that I envy you. You were so brave through everything. I know you are no longer suffering and not dealing with anymore pain but I truly miss you more than anything. I asked you to be my maid of honor a few weeks ago, you will still remain my maid of honor. You will never be replaced. You are my angel, please watch over me and show me a sign your with me. I love you Krit, I always will baby girl. My heart is damaged, can you fix it ? (Lyrics to a song we sang to each other).

Chrittersiz: 

where do I start? We shared so many memories together, going to the beach with my family, all the sleepovers and being on AIM and watching signs, till all hours of the wee mornings in the summer before school started. I remember we used to get so mad at that rooster for waking us up so early. You were such an awesome friend and person. Life took us in different directions but the memories I will never forget. I wish we didn't lose touch but all of this really puts into perspective just how precious life is and we should never take it for granted. You touched so many lives and your smile will never be forgotten. You will be our angel and may you rest in peace.

I first met Christy 4 years ago when I began working in the Bakery at the Malvern Wegmans. We instantly bonded over my newfound love of country music (Eric Church & Miranda Lambert), never ending  love of Aerosmith, and how I was a Backstreet Boys fan while she was more of an N'Sync girl. Her warm smile, generosity, and kindness affected everyone around her to the point that you could feel it in your soul. Everyone loved her laugh. You could hear it echo from the Bakery to Prepared Foods. That is one thing I will miss the most...her smile and that one-of-a-kind, warm, loving laugh.

Christy was there through thick and thin. She never passed judgement and always lent a shoulder to cry or laugh on. She was the best listener and she gave the best advice. I wish I could show her how much she meant to me. I know she is at peace now and her memory will live on in all of those whose lives she touched. I was truly blessed to have known her and to have called her a friend. She was an angel on earth and now she is an angel in heaven.

My thoughts, prayers, and heart go out to her family, fiancé, and friends. She will always be with us in our memories and will be missed most deeply. I love you Christy, rest in peace <3

I wanted to offer my heartfelt condolences to the family and share a few Bible text that helped me when I lost someone dear to me.

 

John 5:28, 29 "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out!"

 

Revelations 21:3,4 "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: 'Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.'"

 

You will be in my prayers.

God knows the many tears that you cry and may he caress your aching heart with his loving promise to reunite you together again in the future Paradise when he will bring an end to sickness, pain and even death. (Revelation 21:4, 5) You're in my prayers. (Acts 24:15)

Christy was certainly one of a kind! Her laugh was infectious and put a smile on everyone's face when she belted out her happiness. She was a genuine person who was always thoughtful when it came others needs. You could always count on her to be hard working, friendly, or just make some pretty damn awesome cupcakes!! Heaven has certainly gained one of the best bakers they will ever have and of course another angel. My thought and prayers are with all of her family, friends, coworkers, and her strong and loving big bear Tom. Know that wherever you may go, she will always be with you! Rest in peace Christy! You are truly missed and in all of our hearts!

I wish to offer my sincerest condolences to Christy's family and friends. I never met Chrsity but feel like I have through the memories shared with me by my daughter Kim Bivens. Christy meant so much to so many people and it is extremely sad that such a special person was taken when she had so much promise ahead of her. Please know that her life effected those who never even met her.

I did not know Christy, but I am friends with her Mom and Pidge.  I am so sorry that cancer has taken another life way too young.  It's not fair, however knowing that she is no longer in pain, and can be in Heaven with other family members should hopefully bring you some comfort.  God has gained another Angel.  Gale, Pidge and Tom.... I am so sorry for your loss.  Try and stay strong through this horrible time.  I am sure that is what your daughter/fiance would have wanted.  Rest In Peace Christy.

When I became friends with Tiff, I didn't realize I would also become friends with her little sister...even more feel like you were a little sister to me!  I can not believe our sweet, talented, beautiful Crit is gone,  I will miss your great smile and your unforgettable laugh!  Love you and Rest in Peace Crit!

Christy, I don't even know how to find the words to express my feelings. You will always be that little girl running through my house with my kids, torturing me with endless Barney movies, and you and Cassie jumping from my couch to the chair screaming all the while. You were such a gift to everyone, the world has lost a beautiful person inside and out. Watch over us, till we meet again. Love you Critty!!!

SO GO AND RUN FREE

So go and run free with the angels
Dance around the golden clouds
For the lord has chosen you to be with him
And we should feel nothing but proud
Although he has taken you from us
And our pain a lifetime will last
Your memory will never escape us
But make us glad for the time we did have
Your face will always be hidden
Deep inside our hearts
Each precious moment you gave us
Shall never, ever depart
So go and run free with the angels
As they sing so tenderly
And please be sure to tell them
To take good care of you for me

For some moments in life there are no words but this poem said it best. Our memories are now our treasures.
Love you Crit!

Gale, I knew I had felt something over the weekend of friday 25th through sunday 27th, I couldn't put two and two together.

I did think of you monday the 28th that morning and was wondering how you were doing...I log on to facebook to this, I felt your pain...the same time my family is going through some hard times too.

It is never easy to loose someone close to our heart but what we need to do is we need to keep them strong in our memory and remember the happyness they had brought to us.

You are always in my thoughts, and I am here if you need me.

I want to say, even though I wasn't very close with Christy, I remember her being very sweet and so joyful.  My heart goes out to everyone, my thoughts and prayers sent your way....

Christy.......I am sooooo glad that I took the step 9 years ago and contacted my dad.  Had I not done this I would not know what an amazing other family that I belonged in.  I would have never met you.  I loved all the times that I would get together with your sisters, your mom, and your grandmother and we will always meet up at an Olive Garden.  How I loved taking a pic of you three girls and Tiff sat and smiled so prim and proper, Lindsay looked all cute and innocent, and you.....you would do whatever came to mind like sticking your tongue out!!  How I love looking back on those pictures and would give anything to have just one more!  I love you and am so glad that I can call you my niece.  When you see Mom Mom McLaughlin, give her a big hug and kiss for me.  She to left this world way to soon, but I waited to long to see her.  We had plans to meet, but she passed away before I ever had the chance.  Until we meet again......I will miss you always!
