Chris-you were always so amazing and beautiful. You will be missed. Ian.

To the Patitsas/Kopsian family my sincere condolences. We have lost a beautiful soul. Chris was so proud of her family and smiled every time she talked about them. May God wrap each of you in His loving arms for comfort, peace and strength. Love you Chris… cousin Toni

I am so stunned and saddened. Christine and I were friends from childhood. When I think of my high school years, there’s Christine. She was a beauty inside and out. A kind, gentle person who loved her husband and family to the max. I will miss her and remember her with love.
