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.

Xoxo, Lindsay & Jill (daughters)

About Strides for CJD

Strides for CJD is an annual walk/run to raise awareness of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), a rare neurodegenerative disease that has no treatment or cure. Through this event, anyone -- anywhere -- can pay tribute to their loved ones and raise funds for the CJD Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization.

Funds raised support our programs including:

  • Our 24/7 helpline, support groups, conference, and other family programs throughout the year.
  • Research grants to help scientists make important discoveries and bring us closer to a cure.
  • Medical education to help raise awareness and understanding of prion disease.
