The last time I talked to Cristi on Feb 21. She called me, a little afraid about everything that was about to happen. I did my best to just talk to her, and make her feel better I first met her at the NYC Dopefest a few years ago (two years ago this past January), and she and I hit it off right away. She was warm, caring, sensitive, and always willing to put me in my place when I needed it. I miss you already. ---

My condolences. I never met her, but I had hoped that one day I would because from her posts she seemed like someone I would enjoy talking to. ---

I didn’t know her, but my eyes welled up with tears after reading these posts. My best and blessed wishes to her loved ones. It is a pity that she had to go so soon. One of those who were too good for this world. ---

I guess I’d just like to say that I met Cristi last year in NYC, and she was one of the handful of people I met who I really wished I knew better. She was so very friendly and just gave off an aura of happy. Here are some kind thoughts for Euty, Tim, and Cristi Jrs. ---

I know I posted earlier, but I wanted to add that my heart is just breaking. Such a young, good person…gone too soon. And **OpalCat** , thank you so much for the remembrance page. It is a lovely tribute to a lovely person. We will miss her very, very much. ---

I’ll never forget my meeting with Cristi at the NYCDope a few years back. She was happy, laughing and having the time of her life. She truly was a kind and loving soul. My condolences to Patrick and Cristi’s family. ---

Funny you mention that. On a couple of occasions, she mentioned to me in email that she had had tea with Eve, MissCreant, and Manhattan. (Apologies if I’ve forgotten anyone or am mistaken.) It meant a lot to her, and she enjoyed it immensely. ---

Before I forget, my biggest and best memory of Christi was at the last ChiDope I attended, where **Euty** and I tongue-kissed for her amusement. ---

That one person could create such love and heartfelt emotion shows upon her greatly. How poorer the world must be now. I wish I could have known her more then as just a doper. My sincerest condolences to all her loved ones. ---

I must admit, I didn’t know **Persephone** , nor do I remember much about her postings here (although her post count tells me she was obviously a longtime member in good standing). But seeing all the grief here gives me a better idea of the loss that has come about. My condolences to her friends and family.
