Hello Krissy,
It is hard to believe it has been 15 years since you were taken from us because you still shine so brightly in our minds; you were the sunshine for a lot of people and still bring so many smiles and laughs as we remember the person you were. I can see flowers that have been left for you and I know I will be seeing many heartfelt words today as everyone takes time out to remember you.
We will never forget you, Krissy! Keep smiling down on all of us 🙂
Love,
Michelle

Thinking of you, Krissy… it’s hard to believe it’s been 12 years since you were taken from us. I found the poem below when I was writing poems for you and wanted to leave it here for others.
Hopefully they will find some comfort in the words…

The Rose Beyond The Wall
~ From the writings of A. L. Frink
Near shady wall a rose once grew,
Budded and blossomed
in God’s free light,
Watered and fed by morning dew,
Shedding its sweetness day and night.
As it grew and blossomed fair and tall,
Slowly rising to loftier height,
It came to a crevice in the wall
Through which there shone a beam of Light.
Onward it crept with added strength
With never a thought of fear or pride,
It followed the light through the crevice’s length
And unfolded itself on the other side.
The light, the dew, the broadening view
Were found the same as they were before,
And it lost itself in beauties new,
Breathing its fragrance more and more.
Shall claim of death cause us to grieve
And make our courage faint and fall?
Nay! Let us faith and hope receive –
The rose still grows beyond the wall.
Scattering fragrance far and wide
Just as it did in days of yore,
Just as it did on the other side,
Just as it will forevermore!

Krissy,
I met you in first grade at the farnsworth school, and knew you up until you were taken away from all of us. I have many great memories of our youth in the farnsworth school. I was recently looking over pictures from 6th grade. We had a diner at the ‘town line’ restaurant for our class graduation. I have pictures of us as well as danny connelly, rob nash, darrell deluca, lori sullivan, karen macintire, sondra mastarelli, and jenifer athas. It brought back a lot of fun memories. You were such a great person and always so much fun to be around. One of my favorite summers was the one after sixth grade, i spent most of my time up at brooksby farms over danny connellys house. The three of us had so much fun that summer. you used to let us swim in the kross keys pool!! My father recently died unexpectedly, and i found you on this site. God bless you, and your loving family for keeping up such a beautiful and dedicated site. There were many years i didn’t see you when i went away to prep school and college, but usually around thanksgiving we would bump into eachother and talk about the old days over a few drinks. I was just starting to get to know you again after my divorse, when this happened. I was sooo saddened to hear what happened. I know there is no way to turn back time, i’m sure only success and good things would have been. You are in a better place, and if you see my dad tell him ‘i love him.’ You were truely a special person. Our lives crossed as children, and that is the girl i remember, always laughing, always having fun. A fond friend from long, long ago.
Sincerely,
Chris Konovalchik

Hey Krissy…
it’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years that you’ve been gone… I think of you often… especially when I am asked about upcoming reunions…. If we hadn’t been ‘goof – offs’ ;)… and if you were still with us.. it’d be our 20 year reunion…. or.. maybe next year’s reunion… the class of 86 & 87…
I always try to tell myself.. you are in a better place now…
Miss your sunny smile and attitude girl….

Krissy,
Sorry it’s taken me so long to find you here….. For someone ‘so smart’ I can be pretty dumb …. It’s been 9 years…. I always think of you, especially now….. I cried for you today, when I found this place…. You were one person who I always wanted to see at reunions or even anywhere, you brightened up the world …… I didn’t go to the 10 year reunion because I knew I’d feel the emptiness…. 20th is coming up…. I might just skip that one too… We met in elementary school, YOU reminded me… 🙂 I know you are spreading your sunshine, somewhere much better than here…. Shine On….. I’ll see you when I get there….

I am leaving these flowers because they represent the beauty of life. It is fitting that we use flowers as a token of our remembrance when a life dear to us is taken away. For Karen’s mother and for her friend, Michelle.

I remember a day with my father at Baby Land on Rt.1 when I was about to meet my new baby sister. I got to pick her first toy, it was a red and white, not quite sure what it was, but it looked a lot like Burl Ives in Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. So, basically it was a colored snowman. I got home to our driveway on 88 Birch St., to see my mother in a very bad orange and brown paisley dress holding a new and wrinkled addition to the family. I had my new Captain America rubber bendy guy and saw the first light of my life.
She did something then, when I offerred my hand to her, that she did for the next three or four years. She grabbed my first two fingers with her little hand and she held onto them so tightly. She knew those fingers were there until she was ready to let go.
Years went on, and we had many other situations where we held each other’s hands, and carried each other through wacky situations (you all know my mom and dad!) and laughed.
Around this time, not long ago, a light went out of my life, but a light came on again, because she’s still with me and I’m holding on to her fingers.
We can all think of situations and people that Krissy should have know and experienced, but trust and believe me she does and she does.
I love and miss you, my sister and my friend,
Your “fuckin’ asshole” brother,
Curt

Auntie,
Today is June 2, 2003, and it has been seven years since you have been gone… And it hurts so bad after all these years… I miss you so much, and I still don’t think it’s fair that this happened. I love you with all my heart and I want you to know that… My love for you, everyones love for you will never end. Ali says hi and she misses you very much… I wrote a poem I hope you like it… I know when I look at the clouds you are here. I know when it rains you are here. I know when im crying you are here. I know when i am happy you are here. I know as time passes you are here. And, I know no matter what i do you are always here.
I love you so much and i miss you..
But I will see you again someday…
And we will reunite in arms of love..
And in happiness…
Someday…..
I LOVE YOU…
~Love Ashley… A.K.A Ashabum

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, and the hope of its children.”

Hi swettie;
It’s your mom, and it has been almost five years now and I miss you as much now as I did when you left us. Dan and I have a Krissy garden full of daisies and yellow roses surrounding our Krissy Christmas tree that we use at Christmas time. I know your Dad has found you, he sent me a message that he did. He will take care of you until we meet again. All my love and prayers to you my sweet daughter.

Do not stand by my grave and weep.....
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am a diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awake in the
morning hush, I am the
swift upflinging rush of quiet birds' circling flight.
I am the soft star shine at night.
Do not stand by my grave and cry....
I am not there
I did not die.
