I am saddened to hear of Cristina's passing. As a breast cancer survivor myself, Cristina and I shared time together during chemotherapy and at the Young Cancer Retreat in Nashville. She always had a positive attitude and she was a great inspiration not only to me, but to everyone she encountered. She will be missed.
I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of Cristina. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless you all.
Carla, my heart is saddened for you and your family on reading of your daughter's death. It seems just yesterday that we were parents at swim meets together. May God wrap you in his love and peace. Love, Jean
As a former classmate and GPGC sorority sister, I was deeply saddened to hear of Cristina's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with the Manieri family. May God bless you.
With deepest sympathy,

Manieri Family,
I'm saddened to hear Cristina passed away. Her commitment to speaking out about breast cancer is an example of her kind hearted character and will to live. I'm sure God welcomed her with opened arms. I hope you find comfort in your memories of her. I'll keep you in my prayers.

My dearest Carl Jean ,
I am so very sorry to hear of the death of your beloved daughter Cristina .
Today , I was doing some internet research on our MABON family and was looking for contact email addresses for you and Barbara Ellen and Jon . I was heartstricken to find this post instead . Our world is truly becoming smaller with this internet .
I know you have great faith and will understand that your daughter continues to live in Christ Our Lord . I offer up my prayers today for her eternal joy in heaven and for you dear cousin and your family . I know your daddy and mine have met her there . She will be with loving family on the other side now .
I continue to hear from my dad and his mum my grandmother Jessie in dreams . And I see their spirit from time to time , but I cannot hear them as much as I would like . It helps me to know that they watch over us as I am sure your Cristina will be watching over you .
Write me please and let me know you are well .
With all my love and hopes for you ,
hugs and kisses
Kaki
God has a special beautiful angel in Heaven today. You were the most courageous and loving woman I have ever seen. You brought people closer to the Lord by the loving things you did even though you were ill. You will never ever be forgotten. Love you Cristina, Peg
I am so sorry for your loss. The funeral today was very touching. I loved the song Cristina's friend wrote. It was lovely. I hope you find comfort in knowing Cristina is in God's hands now and is free of pain. I hope your pain lessens as time goes by. Remember she loved you and you loved her.Keep her in your heart as we all will and she will never be forgotten.
Love,
Patsy Sebera
