Kristina Hill LeMond

September 15, 1988 – May 1, 2013

Kristina Hill LeMond (Kristy), loving daughter and sister of Barry, Kathy, and Kevin, passed away peacefully on May 1, 2013 at home. She was 24 years old. Surrounded by loved ones, Kristy left this earth as she lived; with grace, love, and compassion. Kristy was a 2007 graduate of Issaquah High School where she was a four-year varsity volleyball player, and a 2011 graduate of the University of Washington. The friends she made during her lifetime are too many to count; as her loyalty, selflessness, and compassion were a magnet to anyone she met. She loved people, loved to laugh, and loved life. It is that simple. The Lord put a love for children in Kristy’s heart at a young age and she followed that calling right up to her death. During the last two years, Kristy travelled to the Dominican Republic, Tanzania, and Chile, volunteering and working with children. More than anything, she wanted to make a difference in their lives, showing them the love, care, and joy she felt because of them. Kristy left an imprint on these children through her infectious smile and unconditional love. Kristy is survived by her parents, Barry and Kathy; her brother, Kevin; her grandmother, uncles, aunts, cousins; her many friends, and the hundreds of children she loved. A celebration of Kristy’s life will be held at 2pm, Saturday, May 18, 2013 at Crossroads Bible Church in Bellevue. Friends are invited to view photos, get directions and share memories in the family’s online guest book at www.flintofts.com. Flintoft’s Funeral Home and Crematory, 425-392-6444.
