She was very sweet and loving. I can't even imagine the heartbreak you all are going through. My prayers are with you all! Love and hugs to all of you! ❤❤❤ Terry D'Souza Mason, OH Monday, September 13, 2021 My heartfelt sympathies to Samuel and children as well as to my dear friear friend and her Dad Tim and Mom Renee and family. Mike & Sharon McCoy Kerrville, TX Saturday, September 11, 2021 So devastated by this news; we enjoyed the visit of your beautiful family to our home because our houses have the same floor plan, and Kristina was looking for decorating ideas. We will miss seeing her watering her yard while the children played nearby. Holding your family in our prayers. The McCoys, your neighbors just down the hill. Julie Hamilton Kerrville, TX Saturday, September 11, 2021 Kristina and her family helped me realize that God actually did have a reason for me to be living in the house I'm in. We are next door neighbors and spent many hours sharing the Lord, our life with each other over the fence or in each other's homes. We moved into our homes on the same day in 2016 and both wondered if this was where God wanted us. I believe with all my heart and soul that Kristina and her family are one of the biggest blessings in my life. My life is forever changed because of her life and also her passing. She has left behind a precious family that have a strong faith in God and I believe that God can turn ashes to beauty. We who knew and love her will see her again and what a glorious reunion that will be. Laura Vigil Comfort, TX Saturday, September 11, 2021 Kristina was my best friend up here, and was such a bright light in my life and in so many others. I am so heartbroken, and wish I had just one more chance to tell her how loved and special she was to me. Prayers are going out to Sam, Isabelle, Reuben, Jonas, and Elijah. We love you so much, and we are here for you. Courteney Miller Kerrville, TX Friday, September 10, 2021 Kristina was like sunshine everytime I saw her big beautiful smile. My heart aches for the Anderson Family. I pray for the peace only God can give love, and comfort in the coming days and always. She was a good friend, loving momma, and her infectious light will be missed dearly. Service
