    My heart is aching for my beautiful friend as well as her entire family. Crystal and I spent many times together throughout the years. As I reminisce I can only recall her speaking mostly about her family. She was all about her kids, her loving mother and her brother. She was always happy and smiling and always on the go doing things for other people. I struggle to think of a world without our Crystal.

    Michael, Lisa, Ann and all family members, especially Gianna, Annabel and Zachary. We were so sorry to hear of the passing of your dear wife, daughter and mother. Crystal will be missed by all who knew her. We don't knowwhy someone so young is taken from her family, but now there is a new angel in heaven to watch over her children and family.
