Christine Marie Lach

The family of Christine “Chris” Marie Lach of Shawnee, Kansas is deeply saddened to announce her passing on July 20th at the age of 41. Chris was born in Tulsa, Ok on May 18, 1985, to Daniel E. Lach and Dawna L. Lach.

Chris lived in Kansas for 40 years, where she graduated from Shawnee Mission West High School and worked in the field of Property Management for 20 years. Chris was a devoted friend. She fostered dogs with her children for years, overjoyed when they found forever homes. With only two “foster failures”, namely Norman and Phinney who found their permanent homes within our family. Chris was a warm, compassionate soul who went out of her way to show kindness to others.

Chris is survived by her children, Jordan and Jase; mother, Dawna; father, Daniel; sisters, Elaine J. Neselroad and Denise K Pattee; brother-in-law, Nicholas ‘Nick’ Neselroad; nephews, Lukas and Ayden; niece, Finnley; aunts, Judy Smith and Sonia Lach; and uncle, Dave Lach.

Chris was preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, Donald D. and Shirley J Hastings; paternal grandparents, Edward J. and Patricia A. Lach; uncle, Gail Smith; and aunts, Sharon K. Hill and Brenda J. King.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.

    She was my next door neighbor.
    She always was so pleasant to visit with.
    I liked her and I was very sad to hear about her.
    She always will be remembered!

    This makes me very sad. All three of you girls were great friends and neighbors. I always referred to you as the three girls. I enjoyed you all hanging out with Tonya and DJ at our house. To Dan, Dawna, Elaine and Denise. I’m very sorry. The world is going to miss you Chris. My little “Red”
