Kristie professed her life to Christ at an early age and later in life became a member of Raven Hill Baptist Church were she continued to worship until her last days. Anyone that ever meet Kristie loved her just as she did everyone. Never was there a time, even while fighting this fight, would you encounter a more kind, loving, and positive person with a continuous sparkle in their eye and a smile so bright that it could light up a dark nights sky. The things Kristie enjoyed most in life were just the simple things, from holiday cookouts, to egg hunts on Easter, yearly fireworks on the 4th of , sitting around the living room just listening to music, she also baked a birthday cake for each family member every year. Kristie was also a fan of being outdoors with her friends and family, spending several weeks during each summer on the beach no matter the location, sometimes staying in a high rise condominium in Florida to camping at Pirateland Family Camp Grounds in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina to enjoying the lush tropics of Hawaii. Even though Kristie was a graduate of The University of Tennessee with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology her true passion in life was being a mother, she found that love and dedication many years before actually having her own child. This passion was made clear almost 18 years ago when her mother Patsy Shell lost her battle to breast cancer in 1999 and Kristie began caring for her younger brother Charlie, who was 10 at the time, but the love and devotion didn't stop there, the birth of Valoree Rouse in 1999, Carlie Butler in 2000, and Alex Cooper in 2006 made Kristie an outstanding mother of 4 before she gave birth to her own son Karson Patrick Turner on 12, 2013, which was by far her greatest accomplishment and driving force of fight against her cancer diagnosis.
