Christi was my colleague and my friend.  She brought energy and enthusiasm to work.  I could always count on her for a sympathetic ear and support.  Christi was the first person in leadership to tell me that she saw leadership qualities in me, and she encouraged me to apply for a leadership role.   Christi had a passion for travel - especially to Disney World(s) - and she was so comfortable just being herself.  She could be trusted with your most precious secret and counted on in a time of need.  I will miss her.  I am sure she was treasured by her family, and I am so sorry for your loss.

Where to even begin? 

Christi, my loving, incredible, passionate, fun and youthful "aunt" that wasn't blood. 
You babysat me while my mom was attending college, when the parents wanted date night and even sometimes JUST BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO.  You were detrimental in my development as a child and a young man. You flew me to Texas to drive back with you to California when you were moving, just for the company. We had COUNTLESS nights of laughs and all of our years together were filled with love and family. 

You will be greatly missed, Aunt Christi. I'll play a race car game tonight in my little blue jeep, just for you! XOXO

Rest in peace, my dear, sweet, Christi.  You will be missed by so many.  I'll see your face everytime I'm at the beach, and I'll find "that perfect shell" for you, too. I'll miss you, terribly💖

Our special "toes in the sand" time!  I will cherish it forever!

My dear Minerva,   how can I ever express my sincere, deep condolences for the loss of our sweet Christi?  She could be counted on thru thick and thin and was always first to help.  Her love for us long-time friends (family in heart) superceded time and distance.  My heart aches at her loss, as I am sure yours is broken.  Please know she will always be with us.  With deepest sympathy, Debbra Idle 

Dear Christi,

I’m happy I got a chance to know you. Thank you for the mini talks and encouragement to do better. Thank you for always allowing  me to be great and silly without judgement.  You will be missed! 

Much love,

CoCo



I'm so sorry for this monumental loss. I loved and adored Christi. She was always so bubbly and funny. She helped me several times at work and she was very encouraging. 

One of my favorite memories was one time in the breakroom. We were talking about our days and I noticed her Pokemon Go sensor on her work lanyard. She told me about it and what it does. As she reached for the fridge door to grab a drink, the sensor went off. Opened the door, looked at her phone, and she began to laugh. She laughed and told me, "there's a poke gym in the fridge!" She was so excited and thought it was the funniest thing ever. She said, "I'm getting a pokemon and a drink at the same time!". It was so random and funny at the same time. 

We always talked about Pokemon, her travels, and whatever else the day threw at us. I'm deeply saddened by this loss and I'm sending my thoughts and prayers to her friends and family. She will be missed very much.
