" Kristi was awesome. She never felt sorry for herself and she fought the Cancer like a trooper even when it just kept throwing punches. She and her family are a wonderful example of love, strength, hope and optimism. I'm so glad I was able to spend time with all of you. I'm glad that Kristi is at peace now even though I know how much she will be missed. May God bless and keep you all. "
