Miss you, my friend. Peace be with your spirit.

I simply have no words. I, too, am shocked.

My deepest sympathies for Cristi’s children and family. What a terrible, terrible loss. I am just so sorry.

Damn.

I didn’t know her that well, but she was wonderfully friendly to me at the NYC DopeFest. My sympathies to her family and loved ones.

I’m so sorry to hear of this. It was only in January I got to see Cristi and Patrick at the Dopefest and it was so much fun to hang out with them at America and No Idea. I’ve got a picture of her from that.

☹ This is a sad day for the boards. I’ll light a candle. An easy cycle to you, Cristi; strength and courage to you, Patrick, and to Tim and the rest of her family.

I never knew Cristi personally, but felt like I grew to by reading all of her lovely posts. Her kind nature and love for friends and family was very evident in all that she wrote, and helped make her very loved. Even now, I’m filling with tears. Cristi, may you be in a better place and look down on your loved ones. My condolences to all. ☹

A fellow Doper said to me this morning, “She always liked you, you know.”

I always liked her too.

Cristi and her loved ones are in my thoughts and prayers.

The last words I heard from Cristi in NY, just before we left, were “Goodbye, I love you, and we’ll see you soon”.

I’m going to miss my Al so much.

My love and condolences to Patrick, Tim, and the babies most of all. Those poor kids.
