KENNEDY DURI, JANUARY 17, 2017 Christina's courage, grace, and open-hearted friendship was an inspiration and inspiration for all of us who knew her. Our thoughts and prayers are with Aaron and her family. RAY & MARIAN ROLLINGS, JANUARY 17, 2017 My daughter Billi Lycett is my daughter. I lived in IN where Billi was raised, before she moved to TX. Each time we talked she would speak of her Friend
Christian. After awhile I had this strong feeling inside that I must get in touch with this remarkable young lady. I knew she didn't get on Facebook, but took a chance, and requested Christian to give me her email. On the first day she gave it to me. Then I emailed her, and gave her my phone number. The very first time we talked we were like two Souls that connected. She went to college in IN. Had family that lived in PA. Wow, that is the state we moved from before we had to move to IN. After that we talked a couple times a week. We are years apart in age, but I couldn't believe how much we had in common. From, cooking, baking, our love to plant a garden, and flowers, holistic way of living, our medical condition, and we shared our Faith in God. There was nothing we couldn't talk about, nor was there a time we disagreed with each other on any topic. She was so open mined on every subject. Christina was way ahead of anyone at her age. I consider her as my second daughter. The Love, and support she showed me through times I needed it the most is beyond Words. She told Billi that though each day is bad, there is good in it somewhere. This came from a young lady that suffered much pain. Most people, didn't know other than family, and friends that lived close by. For she put on a Happy Face no matter how bad she felt. I called her "My Little Warrior" and in my eyes she was a "miracle" for she pulled through things that no one else could endure. She told me more than once, I know God didn't give this disease to me. It's what we do to ourself, or the environment, and mostly not paying attention to the signs that her body was trying to tell her along the way. If she had to do over, she would have never ignored those signs. She Never feared passing on. She knew that there was a spiritual after life, where there is no more pain, and her body would be whole again. What she did fear was how Aaron, Mom, Dad, family, and friends would take it. That's why she fought so hard to keep going. I loved her SO MUCH! Yes, my heart is broken, she is gone for now, until I see her again on the other side, but I know first hand, from what she told me, she would be broken hearted, to see so much saddness from everyone she Loved. She doesn't want that. All she wants is for everyone to remember her love for you, and to go on with your life. She knows we are sad, and the tears seem to
keep coming, but I try to remember all the things she told me. It gives me Great Peace inside to know that my little one is in the arms of God, safe, sound, and waiting for me when my turn comes. It's not goodbye sweetheart, rather it's I will see you again. I truly will miss you, and the wisdom, Love, Support, and comfort you gave me, and everyone that you touched in your life. Now you can Rest in Peace Baby Girl. Love you, from your second Mom. SANDY LYCETT, JANUARY 17, 2017 My heart is broken hearing the news about Christina. I knew when I first met her at Walgreens that we would become good friends. She was the most generous,giving and loving person I ever met. Even during her illness,she thought of her family and friends first. Aaron my heart goes out to you, Jennefer and Tom. What a wonderful family. Christina will ALWAYS be in my heart and thoughts. LESLIE BINES, JANUARY 16, 2017 Christina, I can't believe you are gone from us now. Being your friend and your neighbor has given me so much joy in my life. Your constant love for others in the midst of your suffering, will forever be a guiding light for me and my family. I will miss you so dearly.. The jewelry I wear will always remind me of you and your joyful life. DENISE ROCHE, JANUARY 16, 2017 Christina was a very joyous, caring, giving person and a big part of our lives.

Love, Debra, Rick & Jennimarie DEBRA DINNOCENZO, JANUARY 16, 2017 Christina...My heart is saddened to know you are gone from here on earth, but knowing you are at peace in heaven, looking down on us, I can smile because
of that. We lost connection for a long time, but when we started back up again when I was pregnant and had my daughter, it was so bittersweet to hear from you and for me to be able to share photos of her with you. You have always been a beautiful and warm hearted person. You will forever be in my heart Love, Brittany BRITTANY GUNDLACH, JANUARY 16, 2017 I never met someone that had her tenacity and dedication to her own patients, even as she was struggling with her own chronic disease. She will be missed but not forgotten. RAJ CHHADUA, JANUARY 16, 2017 I met you five years ago, and immediately knew we would be friends. Little did I know that you would become family, never going a day without talking about everything or nothing. I told you recently that you were the best thing that happened to me in Texas, but what I really meant was you changed my life in ways I couldn't have dreamed. You taught me, by example, what it means to be strong despite all the odds. You elevated all I ever knew about generosity, kindness, and thoughtfulness. I could not wait to share every joy, every fear and you always knew just what to say. You would be embarrassed by this message because you didn't want the focus on you. You spent all your time worrying about others, even when everyone was worrying about you. Part of me wants to run away from this house, this neighborhood, because I can't look anywhere without thinking of you. I consulted you on practically every decision, and I hear your voice everywhere. We made a million memories, and my heart aches for more. Yet, I know when the flowers you planted for me come up in the Spring, and every year after, they will symbolize a rebirth. You knew what you were doing when you planted them in December, and I have to believe God knew what he was doing when he took you from me. I will miss you forever. BILLI, JANUARY 16, 2017 We are so sorry to hear about Christina. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
DAVE & MARCY BECHER, JANUARY 16, 2017 Keeping you and your family in prayer. May you find comfort in the beautiful memories. SANDY RECENDIZ, JANUARY 16, 2017 I can't believe my best friend is gone. The most wonderful, caring, loving person I have ever known in my life. I will miss her so much,but she's in a better place. My thoughts and condolences to Aaron and her parents.may God give you strength. ALMAZ ISAAK, JANUARY 15, 2017 Please accept my sincerest condolences on the loss of Christina. Some of my fondest memories as a teenager are the times Christina and I spent together. We were always silly and laughing. Years and miles apart, but still a dear friend to my heart. God bless her and all of you at this time of sorrow.
