I'm glad we crossed paths in life and randomly met in in Breckenridge then realized we were both LE.    I'm so very sorry for your family's lose.  Always looked forward to our Snapshot and sharing our crazy LE things.  

Rest Easy


Ralph and I are very saddened and feel heart felt sympathies in the loss of your Mother, Grandmother, Auntie, Sister, daughter, and to all her many friends she considered family. Her many interests and the love she had for all of you was something she shared with real pride, devotion and and always with a sparkle in her eyes as she spoke proudly and lovingly of you all on many different subjects over the years. Sadly she is gone too soon. All our love always,
 Ralph and Terry Hogue
Please know if we could attend on Monday, we would be there. Our very best to you all. 

Kristina had a generous heart and a great sense of humor.  She could make any day a fun one and worked to make those around her feel loved and included.  

She was a great mentor and an even better friend.  She will be missed, but I know she will always be with us in spirit. I know she is now at peace and finally finding the joy she deserves.  

We love you Kerl!  We will take the watch from here!

I met Kris, one night at work, where we were both stuck in a section we didn't want to be. I never really worked in that section before and man, she was a goof. I was instantly hooked. We hit it off and we were just pea and carrots. 

I have prided myself in many things, in recent years. When I met Kris, my life, whew.  I have no words. So many things were happening. I burned so many bridges. Hated myself. I had so much going on. A lot of people just gave up on me. Don't blame them. Not Kris. She was a rock. Always a rock. 

Kris had the ability to read someone and know their emotions. I believe she was so overly passionate about others feelings, she would often disregard her own to help others. Her passion was to love others, relentlessly. She also had a passion of being very straight forward, direct, and had the ability of putting you on the path you needed. 

Kris was one of the people I can credit in helping change my life. She saved me. She saved a lot of people. My twin birth month friend. Olive you, my friend. You were one of a kind. Only few people knew me or know me the way you did and, that will hold true forever. You got me on a right path. I'm healthy. I'm alive. I'm devastated. But, I will use this memory to help others, I promise you. Love you, kid.

Kristina was my DTO for the first day of my Deputy training. We had hospital duty at a local hospital. Kristina was very patient and a great teacher. I miss her so much and wished I reached out more to here after I left the office. Please let me know if there’s anything I can do. Know your family is in my prayers. Kristina was a wonderful friend and human being. The loss of her has left a huge void in my heart,  as well as anyone else that had the privilege of knowing and working with her.
My deepest sympathies 
Michael Reed (Former Deputy Reed)
