  1. Chris was one of the first person we spoke to when we joined FCCLG. She was so sweet and took the time to get acquainted with our family. We will miss her presence at church. Prayers for her family and friends who ache with grief.

  2. I will remember Chris fondly from church and specifically our book club. Chris always had a quiet smile and a friendly hello. I remember the times she was away, happily helping with her grandkids.

  3. “Life here is only a whisper of time,
    but our song will endure throughout eternity.”

    Chris’s life cannot be compared to one song.
    Her friendship was like an orchestra of songs and
    the melodies will go on forever.

    Ken, Karen, Jim, Jimmie, Jake & Josh,
    I am sending you my deepest and sincerest sympathy,
    Love Always,
    Auntie Karen Krisberg

  4. So many fond memories at McDermott Will & Emery and our adventures with the Walking Club. Chris became a dear friend and enjoyed our get togethers even years after leaving the firm. Heard so many wonderful stories of the time she was grateful to spend with her daughter and grandsons, son-in-law and even the in-laws. A very special lady. I am blessed to have known Chris and call her my friend.

  5. My heart hurts for Ken, Karen, Jim and the boys. Chris had a heart of gold and was truly an angel on earth. Chris definitely made the world a better place, her smile and the joy in her heart left a footprint everywhere she went. She will be greatly missed. I am thankful I had the privilege of knowing her.
