She was the loved daughter of Paul & Patti Quebbeman and the dear sister of Jim (Keely) Absher, Katie Quebbeman (Jose Hernandez), and Nick Quebbeman. Kristie was the adored aunt to Jorie Absher, Paige Absher, and Abigail Kasper. She was preceded in death by her grandparents George & Patricia Quebbeman, Carl & Beverly Tallon, and godfather Lee Miller.

Kristie was described as a free spirit who lived her life on her own terms. Her radiant smile and genuine interest in people had the power to turn strangers into lifelong friends. Each interaction with her was impactful, shaping not just a day but an entire week.

Compassionate and creative, Kristie succeeded in ways that transcended conventional measures of achievement. She touched hearts, embraced emotions, and filled every moment with laughter and warmth. Her life taught others to celebrate uniqueness, cherish connections, and find joy in the simple moments. Kristie’s spirit will always be a source of inspiration for those who knew her.
