Kristen Forward

December 6, 1949 – June 25, 2012

Our mom Kris is easy to describe because she was beautiful inside and out.  She was a light to everyone she encountered and had the most beautiful “smiling eyes”.  Kris had this extraordinary ability to connect with anyone.  Her infectious personality was her most memorable trait. She was the person you could trust, get advice from, and lean on.  She lived her life to the fullest and never passed up an opportunity to have fun.  She loved traveling, celebrating and giving back.  We could never understand how she had so much energy!  When we tell stories about her life I can’t help but laugh because her life stories are so incredible.  She was generous, kind, spirited, spontaneous, fashionable, hardworking, a sales girl, a dancer, social butterfly, never embarrassed, passionate, do anything for anyone, beautiful, supportive, special, one in a million.
