It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved daughter Kristen Halla, 34, of Amherst, MA. Krissy passed away at her home on Sunday, June 14th leaving behind a legacy of love, laughter, and kindness. Born on December 11,1991 in Springfield, MA she was the beloved daughter of Dawna Parmiter and Christopher Halla. Krissy graduated from Westfield High School in 2010 and went on to fulfill a career as a PCA care giver to many of her clients who absolutely adored her sweet, caring, loving, funny spirit. Beyond her professional achievements she was known for her vibrant spirit, a beautiful soul who would do anything for anyone. She loved animals, nature, fishing anything related to the great outdoors. She loved calligraphy, writing her own poetry, mediation, yoga, and journaling. She loved to joke around and loved to laugh and encouraged others to love themselves. She loved her family the most and she also touched the lives of everyone she met with her infectious laughter, sweet, kind heart, and gentle soul. She will be deeply and forever missed immensely. Our favorite quote to each other was always “Stay Gold.” You will always Stay Gold my baby girl. I love you so much.
