She was born September 19, 1951 in Dayton OH. Chris graduated from Vandalia Butler High School in 1969 and then went on to Miami University of Ohio where she was a Kappa Kappa Gamma and graduated in 1973 with her Bachelors in Education. It was at Miami where she met Jim and started the family tradition of "Miami Mergers." Jim and Chris were married August 11, 1973 in Vandalia, OH and have spent 41 happy years together. Anyone who knew them was blessed to know the other as they were true life partners that shared each day. Chris was a reading specialist at Freedom Elementary where she was not only an educator, but a mentor to many children and their families. She was CCD teacher at her parish where she was able to share her devotion to the Catholic faith. She enjoyed gardening, reading, running to Elton John, enjoying a good glass of Cabernet and walks on the white sandy beaches of Destin, FL with her labradoodle "June." Chris had a passion for life and touched everyone she met. A day spent with Chris was a very good day and friends, family, and neighbors share a wealth of memories.
