Chris,
Intelligent, smiling, energetic, personable, bubbly; and the positive attributes of our dear friend Chris could go on and on. If you knew her, from the first time you met her, she became your friend. What a Mentor and Leader in her professional life! What an Ambassador throughout All of her life. The dearest of friends; she was taken away from us way too soon. The pain and sadness to us who knew her is so difficult to process; it seems unbearable. But, the love and warmth we feel in our hearts and souls provides a bit of solace as we reflect on our memories of Chris; her smile and laugh were so contagious. Chris may have been taken away from us, but her memory will live in us and through us forever. May God’s Grace provide comfort for her family in this difficult and sorrowful time. Our loss is Heaven’s gain. We will miss you dear friend!
Love, Joe and Michelle Long

Chris was an incrediblewoman, a trail blazer in the surgical technology profession, a friend to everyone she met, and mentor and inspiration to so many. She was the kindest most genuine person I ever met and words cannot begin to express how deeply she is and will be missed. I will always treasure my memories of her and the time we shared. She loved her family so much; it was evident in how she absolutely glowed when she spoke of you, which was often.
