Kris was a kind and caring person. She was devoted to her family and beamed with pride when speaking of the accomplishments of Emily and Maggie.
She was always welcoming when I would return to town for visits and always shared some of her homemade goodies.
Her smile and kind words will be missed.

Kris’ life was filled with love. Her patience, grace and devotion to Patrick and the girls are her legacy, along with her famous homemade lefse and salsa!
Kris always had a kind word and epitomized the meaning of “selfless individual.” She always put others first and made us feel important to her.
We are heartbroken and will cherish her memory.
