April 3, 1990 ~ April 7, 2019
In the early morning hours of April 7th, our beloved Krissii left this world unexpectedly, with her went a little bit of sunshine, a lot of laughter and pieces of our hearts.
Krissii was light and laughter mixed with sass and spunk. She graduated nursing school as an LPN with her state boards pending. She was supported by all her family, friends, and classmates.
She looked up to her Uncle Chuck and wanted to follow in his footsteps. She loved scrapbooking, remodeling, repurposing, organizing, spending time with her babies, shopping, getting her nails done, eating boiled crawfish, Family Sunday Fun-Days, laughing and family get togethers.
Krissii had a huge family, biological and extended. She was loved by all and if you didn’t love her, it’s because you really didn’t know her. She was the most genuine, loving, selfless, easy going person anyone could ever meet and, man, was she funny. Her comments and comebacks would make you laugh so hard the tears were rolling down your cheeks.
She never needed makeup because she was a natural beauty, she was in style and loved the latest fashion. Her eyebrows were always on “fleek.” She always had her shades on or with her.
Her children took seasonal pictures. Every outfit had to match, from the bow in Ave’s hair down to the socks in Jensan and Rylan’s shoes (that no one was going to see any way). She loved these babies and did not let a day go by that they didn’t know they were loved.
Krissii, a devoted mother that leaves behind her three children, Avelynn Klaire Benoit, Rylan Guidry, and Jensan Wade Guidry. She was also a bonus mother to her step-son, Rylin Benoit. She loved these babies more than anything.
