FSM III Christensen was in my opinion the best FSM (Food Service Manager) and held her ground with determination. She helped run 
the Alfred Hughes Unit Kitchen properly despite the trials and the issues she faced. She faced life with love, passion, and determination to get the job done. She even confronted an Assistant Warden when the shift supervisor, had reassigned me and another exeperienced Food Service Security Officer to the Buildings.  When it was assumed she was all alone with no male security staff after a use of force left FSM Christensen alone.. She in my books was a Warrior of the Kitchen. I'll deeply miss her. :'( One thing she loved was her two big puppies and her cig breaks. :) Wherever she lies, I can only assume, pray and hope her place of rest is cared for with full military honors as I understood her to be in the military.. She 'adopted' me as a stray kitchen security worker. I light a candle for her, and keep her and everyone I cherish in my heart that helped me be a better person.. May Her Memories Be For An Eternal Blessing.... SO SAY, WE ALL!!!!!! :) <3 Merite <3 

To your sweet smiles 
You will be. Missed
