I am very sorry to hear of your loss. I had the extreme pleasure of working with Kris 25 years ago. I will always remember her kindness, smile, and friendship. My thoughts and prayers are with you during your time of sorrow.
My condolences to the family you’ve left behind.
My deepest condolences to the family for a life that ended too soon. Although I am not known to you or Ms Nogowski, I would like to send a comforting thought to the family. May this thought from the holy scriptures be strengthening to the family at such difficult time, “God is healing the brokenhearted ones and binding up their painful spots. One day soon, “death will be swallowed up forever” – Isaiah 25:8. And the adamic sin of suffering and sickness will be no more -Isaiah 33:24. John 5:28,29.
