Hi, my name is Cristina Depoy. The eldest daughter of Benita West; The BEST mother, sister, Family member, and friend anyone could ask for.

My mother unexpectedly passed away on May 8th doing something she loved, camping with family. She leaves behind 3 children. Kimberly West, Paul Depoy, and myself.

Those of you who had the honor of knowing my mother knew she was a kind-hearted, loving, and fun person to be around. She loved, she laughed until she cried (she was the only person that could make my Aunt Kathy cry-laughing), she is a Veteran, a traveler, a JUNK-foodie (lol), a gaming granny, and one of the strongest women anyone could have ever known.

She passed away with no life insurance and we are trying to raise funds to give my mother a Celebration of Life that she would have loved, and deserves. We are asking family, friends, and any kind hearted individuals who would like to donate to help us give our mother a Celebration of Life in lieu of a formal funeral. We will also be celebrating her 69th birthday!!

The date and time we are hoping to have this Celebration of Life will be June 7th, one day before her 69th birthday! More details to come.

My family and I thank you SO much for any donations and for helping us to Celebrate a great mother, sister, grandma, and person anyone could have ever known.
