  • I had the pleasure of seeing Chris every 5 weeks in my hair salon for many years. Despite our 40 year age difference, her and I had so much in common. We shared stories about her children; my children, and her grandkids with whom she was so devoted to. She was such an independent woman, and I know she struggled with having to be so dependent on Walter the last couple of years. However, to protect her loved ones, she held up a strong front despite her frustrations with her illness. I will truly miss her and her wisdom. Hugs to the family.

  • Within our church group I could always rely on Chris to replace me if needed. She was the most kind; compassionate & most beautiful person one could meet. She will be sadly missed by all who knew her & especially Cathy & me.

  • My sincerest condolences to the Lewin family. I met Mrs. Chris when my daughters attended Tiny Tots. We also took a few child care courses at Red River along with Mrs. Donna. When Chris and Donna left Tiny Tots I took it over. So sorry that she had to leave us way too soon.
