Dear Sneddon Family,
I am so sad to find out Krystal has been taken from you. She was an incredible person who I respected and I enjoyed working with her at Salmo Elementary, and getting to know many of you as I also grew up in Salmo and know others in your family too. She was an strong and caring mom, and you will always have her kindness to remember.
Ashley Long
To the Sneddons, the Huggets, and all important people to this amazing person:
Krystal became a piece of me. A piece of my heart, and a piece of my life that I will carry through to the end. She is a part of my legacy. The year that we worked so closely together went in 2468533 directions, and some days felt like they lasted 100 years. It was the toughest year of my professional life, and she was the reason that we made it through on top. Without her consistency, partnership, respect, and mutual love for our kids and each other, we would never have served our kids as well as we did. We can’t accomplish anything with our kids until we have loved them first and made them feel safe, and I am so incredibly thankful that we were on the same page with that. We seemed to be on the same page in most ways, for that fact.
I cannot even begin to imagine what you all are going through. You have been in my thoughts daily. Krystal is an inspiration to me, and I aspire to have even a fraction of her bravery. I miss her fiercely.
Linda Randall
Shelley and family. Todd and I send our deepest condolences to you on the passing of your beautiful daughter Krystal. Thinking of you at such a difficult time! Linda and Todd Randall
