Celia: 
Thank you for all the times you had Megan over to visit with Mary or taking her on a girls day out.  Thank you for making Megan feel welcome while in your care.  She told me how during sleep overs, you'd check in on her to make sure she had enough blankets, was okay or needed anything.  Thank you, you were so sweet.  I pray that you are at peace and for touching our family in the short time we knew you.

CC a dear sweet precious friend!  Heaven got their angel back but left me with an empty space that your friendship and warm smile were everyday.  I will miss your playful goofy nature and our wild football texts.

Cristy Love, memories of you will always bring a smile to my face.  The next Broncos game I watch, I'm going to cheer just for you.  You will be greatly missed my friend.

Your smile and sweet laugh made it a joy to be around.  I will miss you dearly my friend.  I will never forget the fond memories.  You were one of the most fun people to be around.  You were able to effortlessly make everyone else have a good time.  I will keep your Mary and Bobby in my prayers.

Always remembering your beautiful smile & the treasured memories will remain in my heart.  I will always keep You, Bobby & Mary in my thoughts & prayers.  God bless the Montanez family!

May the Lord light your way for your soul to Heaven. +

May you RIP my friend.   Your smile, laugh and energy will be missed.  May you find comfort in the arms of our Lord.  May he wrap his arms around all of us and comfort us as we miss you.  May he most of all console Mary and Robert. They will be in my constant prayers.  Keep watch over all of us.  BIG HUGS AND KISSES - GLADYS MADDIN

Lovely Cristina, I am at a loss for words when I learned that you were taken from us and your loved ones way too soon.  The last time I checked, you were so vibrant, free spirited, and were full of life.  We all love you and wish that you were still here, but our heavenly Father have better plan for you.  The day God decided he needed you; you are in heaven watching over all of us.  Our dearest Cristina, you will always be remembered.  May you, my dear friend, rest in peace!

I'm going to miss you my dear sweet friend.   Thank you for always being so kind, caring and thoughtful.   Praying for your family, God Bless you.

CRISTINA, YOU WILL BE FOREVER MISSED IN OUR FAMILY. MAY YOU REST IN PEACE, SING WITH THE ANGELS, AND BE ETERNALLY IN THE GLORIOUS PRESENCE OF JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD. PRAY WITH BLESSED MOTHER AND ALL THE SAINTS FOR THE REST OF US. MAY ALMIGHTY GOD BLESS YOUR PRECIOUS SOUL. WE LOVE YOU MUCHO!

Dearest Cristina, in the short time that we knew each other, you were many things to me; you were my lunch buddy, my co-conspirator when playing a prank, my Monday morning quarterback when you discussed your Broncos, but the best thing of all is that you were a true friend. A friend that was always there to listen, to share stories with, and to get an honest opinion from. I truly value our friendship. I will miss you greatly. You are amongst the angels of heaven now, keeping watch over Bob and Mary from up on high. You always did want a picture of an angel, well now you get to be one. Also now you get to tower over me, rest in peace my little friend.

Cristina, I will miss you always & forever. I will miss our Football texting... You will always be in our hearts... May God bless your sweet soul and comfort your family...  Love you my friend

Bob and Mary, 
It is with a heavy heart that I extend my deepest sympathy and condolences for your loss.  Cristina always had beautiful things to say about you both- she loved the two of you very much. I will always remember Cristina's ready smile, her soft giggles when she found something amusing, and the love she had for her family and friends. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Yolanda Young

To Cristina
May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and the rain fall soft upon your fields,
and until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Christina, you brought joy to so many people, and you will be missed dearly. May you rest in peace as your soul passes from this world, reunited and blessed with eternal love from our Father in heaven.

Christina, 
You were beautiful, bright, and cheerful.  May the Good Lord God comfort all your dear friends and family in the loss of such a bright, shining star.

Cristina, I met you when we both started working for the Sheriff's Department at the Hall of Justice. You were a perky, kind, funny girl. I enjoyed talking to you because you always made me laugh. We had alot of fun times together. We lost touch thru the years but I will miss you my friend. You had such a kind spirit. Rest in peace, my friend.

Cristina,

I met you when we both started the Sheriff's Department at the Hall of Justice. You were such a sweet, perky, funny girl.  I remember all the good times we had. You have a beautiful soul and kind spirit. We lost touch throughout the years but I will always remember your beautiful personality. I will miss you my friend.

Cristina, I will forever have you in my heart. I have one more guardian angel in heaven now. I will miss your physical presence. I will miss our get-togethers, catching up on each other's life, and talking about our girls. You were a great friend, mother, and wife. I am very grateful that I met my future husband, Martin, through you. I will miss you until we meet again. I love you, Amiga.

Christina, thank you for many wonderful and sweet memories. Growing up with you was always an adventure and of full surprises! I will miss that beautiful smile and laugh. You will always be so special to my heart. I look forward to seeing you again.(John 5:28) Until then rest safely and in peace in Gods memory. <3

Cristina  <3 I have the best memories growing up with you and Tony. No matter what I was going through in life your smile always made me smile too. May you finally find peace my sweet friend

Cristina my friend, there are tears on earth but angels are singing because you are a precious soul.  You were such a vibrant person with a contagious smile, I was lucky to have known you.  You are missed by many but will not be forgotten.  God bless you and your loved ones.

Bobby & Mary

Please know that Cristina loved both of you with all of her heart.  We got to share in your memories because of the stories that your mom would tell me.  I got to know each one of you personally because of the love that she had for both of you.

Words cannot help in such a time where the pain is unbearable.  Please know that only God can help you with this pain.  All of us loved her dearly and she will be missed.

Please take care of yourselves because that is what she would want of both of you.

Do not let her candle die out in your memory because God called her home.

Cris, I am grateful for you have taught me to cherish our family and to be there for each other no matter how far apart we live. Be with the Lord and rest in His peace.

Cristina, God Bless you, Rest In Peace may your family find comfort In these hard times. Love you BABY, Graciela.

Rest in peace dear Cristina.  Your transition has left so many of us broken hearted.  The only thing that gives me comfort is knowing that the bible assures us that to be absent from the body is to be present with God.

May your existance always be a reminder of all that is good in this world.  Your beautiful smile will always bring brightness to our lives.  You will be missed by all.

Aunt Cristina,
I can't believe you're gone :[ I'm gonna miss your contagious laugh and lively spirit.  Family gatherings will never be the same.  I know you'll be watching over Uncle Bobby and Mary.  I love you forever and always.

Cristina
I wish I had known you longer.  Although we only met once, I remember your
bubbly personality.  you were so fun to talk to, and I know you have so many
friends that miss you.

My lil sister Cris, there is no way for me to put into words how much I love you! We shared so many wonderful adventures together. Thank you for being a part of our lives. You will forever live in our hearts.

I wish I could have seen you one more time.  I love you Big Sis!  Now your pain is gone.  Don't wait up.

Our Dearest Cristina - I will remember and miss your hearty laugh, smile and how you let me pull on your beautiful.  When you laughed it was contagious.  I loved to hear you talk about the Dodgers and football games.   
"Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain.  It's not something you learn in school.  But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything".   Mahammad Ali

Thank you for being my friend Cristina.  To be absent from the body is to be in the presence of the Lord as the Bible says.  God bless you Cristina.  May you find peace and love in His arms.

Oh Cristina you are gone way too soon.  I will miss talking about football
with you.  I will miss you dearly and you will always be in my heart.
 R.I.P my friend.  May God bless your soul.
