Kristin Boecker, age 22, beloved daughter of Russell and Janice Boecker of
Austin, slipped peacefully into the arms of her Heavenly Father after fighting a lifelong
battle with propionic acidemia. During her life Kristin overcame many obstacles of
physical and mental disability and loved life in her world to the fullest. For Kristin each
day was a beautiful day and her smile brought joy to all those around her.
Kristin loved the outdoors, the country, and especially trips to the beach to feel
the sea breeze on her face and to listen to the seagulls. Kristin was surrounded by
many animals at home which she adored. Her labradors kept an ever watchful eye on
her and were rarely out of sight. She was a big fan of Clifford, Elmo, Blues Clues, and
swinging a glowing light saber. Being quite musical, Kristin enjoyed the piano, drums,
the accordion and humming tunes, but Kristin’s favorite activity was watching and
listening to her favorite U2 concert, the louder the better.
Kristin’s loving presence will be missed by her parents, big brother Eric Boecker
of Dallas, and many friends, cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents.
In lieu of flowers the family asks for memorial donations to be sent to the
Propionic Acidemia Foundation, the Organic Acidemia Association or to Bethany
Lutheran Church.
