Kristine was my best friend and if you ever met her, even if only for a moment, you would have felt her amazingly spirited nature and kindness.  She is irreplaceable to so many, especially her mother.  They were two peas in a pod, they were confidants and best friends.  Kristine dedicated her life to caring for all of us, but specifically her mother. We are setting up this GoFundMe for two reasons.  First, to help relieve the financial stress of this horrific murder off the family.  But also, to give those who cared for her an outlet to help fight to make sure violent predators are kept off the street. The fact that she was taken from us in such a tragic, senseless murder will never be lifted from our minds and hearts. Anything contributed, no matter big or small will make a difference. She was our girl, our light and now our angel.  Our goal is to celebrate her life and continue to care for those she loved deeply.  THANK YOU!
