I did not know Kristin however I do work with Kathy and I felt like I knew what a great person Kristin was by the way Kathy's eyes would light up every time she would talk about her, and all of her kids.

I was a co-worker of hers, but we had only really gotten to know each other in the past month. In that short amount of time however, I learned just how intelligent and sharp she was, with a sense of humor unique to her personality. She never took any B.S. either, and I found that incredibly admirable. She was truly an amazing woman, and she will be sorely missed.

To the Family of Kristin Lopez:
I was Kristin's manager at Buffalo Wild Wings and I just wanted you all to know how deeply saddened we are all over the passing of Kristin. All of us at BWW had really got to know Kris since we opened in November and we are all still in shock over the news. She was such a wonderful and vibrant young woman and had so many close friends within our walls..not only her co-workers but so many customers came in just to see her and sit in her section just so she could brighten their day. She was loved by the entire staff and it has been hard without her their to brighten up our day!! Please accept our condolences and know that Kris was loved by many people within her BWW family!!
