Janet “Gracie” Barnes Christensen

Janet Gracie Barnes Christensen did not just live, she taught us how to live as well. More than that, she taught us how to love. Not just others, but ourselves. She was a go go dancer, a hairdresser, a business woman, a peace officer. She was a sponsor and a survivor. She was a teacher and the safest place to laugh or cry. In any room, she was bound to have the biggest personality, the most healing hugs, the highest abundance of sparkle and the greatest heart. She was so many things. One wonders how she fit it into the one giant life she lived. But above all she was Claude and Helens' daughter. She was Danny, Jamie and Christie's Mother. She was Sadie, Kash and Kyler's Granny. She was a lover of Jesus, joy, Gods grace and a friend to all who needed one. And she always will be.
