Christine Sharon Nelson passed away peacefully at home on April 16th, after a long struggle with cancer. With her sparkling eyes and giving spirit, she brought light to the world. Now her spirit is in every growing bulb, green shoot and budding leaf that is bursting forth this spring.
Chris was an archaeologist, a heritage planner, an artist, a word traveler and a great friend to many. She is survived by her husband Andrew, her sister Candy and her nephews Jason and Casey.
