My deepest sympathy goes out to Christie's family and I am in shock and sadden by this tragic news. I was an ex-colleague and friend in Miami, Fl, who admired her spirit, her creativeness, her professionalism, and she was beautiful and funny. Her spirit will be missed, and I know that she is with our heavenly Father. Christie you left us too soon my love, but rest in peace. God Bless.

Dear Karen, Brian, and Bill, I am so sorry for your loss. I have so many good memories of Christie when we were kids- sleepovers, playing dress up with shoes from Karen's closet, creating and selling F.M.P. newspaper... She was such a beautiful person. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Although it has been a long time since I have seen Christie, it feels like yesterday that she and Brian played with my three children. Christie and Dana had been the best of friends in their younger years. They had so many great experiences in school, in Brownies, in sports and as playmates. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
