Our mother, Christine, was one of the most strong, independent, and colorful women to ever walk this earth and our family was blessed to have her as the head of the family. Christine graduated from Red River High, 1996 in Grand Forks. She then went to Jamestown College under a soccer scholarship. She then transferred to UND to pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree, graduating in 2006. Later in life she went back to college to get a degree in Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) at Northland Community & Technical College and graduated 2016 . After graduating, she went on to pursue a career at BECEP in Bismarck, where she worked with and changed the lives of many children as well as parents and coworkers.
She met and married Tory Crowe and together they went on to have 5 beautiful children whom she is survived by. Logan (19), Grand Forks, Sophia (17), Sebastian (14), Thane (12), and Camaron (11) of Bismarck, along with Judy Kuzel (Ewoniuk) (mother) and Lyle Riendeau of Arizona, brother, Anthony “Tony” Kuzel, sister-in-law, Heather Kuzel, and niece, Alexa “Lexi” Kuzel, of Minneapolis.
She was preceded in death by her father Dale Kuzel.
Christine was a wonderful and loving mother, daughter, sister, and overall person who gave her all to her family, friends, and job. She advocated for the kids she looked over for both her job and daily life. Making sure they never felt less then or left out, she changed the lives of many families and will no doubt be remembered. We will never be able to fill the space left behind by her.
