Kris graduated from Southwestern High School in 1990 and received her bachelors degree in business from Blackburn College from 1994. She spent over twenty years in banking. She was currently a loan officer for First Bank in Jerseyville and she also owned the Credit Bureau of Macoupin County in Carlinville.

She was a member of St. John's Catholic Church in Medora, St. John's Altar Society, and the Jerseyville Elks Lodge. She enjoyed traveling, shopping, and spending time with her family and friends, and especially loved spoiling her niece and nephews.

Services will be held at 10 a.m. Monday at St. John's Catholic Church in Medora with Father Raphael Paul officiating.

Burial will follow at Medora Cemetery.

Memorials may be made to St. John's Catholic Church for masses or to “Kris”mas of Hope for the Needy (c/o United Community Bank in Carlinville) as Kris was always a giving person to those who were not as “blessed” in life as she was. Being a very generous person, she believed in and was an organ donor.
