From Flaherty school days, Christy filled a huge spot in my life. Many days were spent at her home eating her mom’s delicious oatmeal pie while listening and singing to our favorite songs.
Always talented, her love of music took us to the middle school talent show where we were the back-up to her lead.
She had a loving soul and valued friendship. My heart goes out to her family. She will be greatly missed.
