Kirsten loved and was very proud of her daughter, Kaylani. Kaylani was the light of Kirsten's life and she was looking forward to celebrating their birthdays together this April.

Kirsten was into high fashion. She loved clothes, shoes, jewelry, makeup and hair. Her other love was animals. She loved Boxers in particular. Her pets, Sargent and Tough Rider, will miss her. Kirsten also enjoyed sports. While growing up, she was a competitive USFSA Figure Skater and enjoyed horseback riding, snowboarding and water skiing. As an adult, Kirsten played softball and volleyball with friends. She enjoyed the outdoors and went on several boating, camping and river floating trips.

Kirsten was a true friend to many. Her friends were extremely important to her. Kirsten was always smiling and energized those around her. When Kirsten learned of a friend in need, Kirsten would do all she could to help.

We love and miss you Kirsten and know you are in a better place with our Lord. May God bless and keep you in his care.
