After graduating Cambridge-Isanti High School in 2001, she started working at Bloomington Acura where she met her person (Jake). Shortly after that, she found her niche at Lifetouch; first as a photographer, then worked her way up to be the best yearbook sales rep in the country. She absolutely loved her job; helping create memories for thousands of kids and loved her co-workers as family (MI Territory) and they loved her back.
Anyone who knew Krystal, knows the love she had for family and life in general. She was one of a kind, caring, generous, fun loving, courageous and kind hearted. Krystal loved to spend time with family and friends. Her joys in life included traveling the world, camping, dancing with her BFF Nicole Betlach, spoiling her nieces and nephews, and cheering on her favorite team – The Minnesota Vikings.
Krystal passed away unexpectedly after a very brief, sudden illness on June 9, 2020 at the age of 37 years, 3 months and 14 days. She is preceded in death by her father, Ryan and grandparents.
Krystal is survived by her husband, Jacob, their 3 kids Macy, Chewy and Frank :) ; mother, Rose; siblings, Jim (Jamee), Jessica (Mike), Rachelle (Tony), sister by choice, Nicole; many nieces and nephews, McKensi, Maxwell, Devon, Faith, Landen, Taylor, Hailey, Bradyn, Jax, T.J., Everett (Godchild), Emilia and Alexis.
I have so many memories from when we were kids. Growing up with you was absolutely amazing. You were always a great friend. Until we meet again. My thoughts go out to your family.
Krystal & I worked together & she was the best loved sharing the good & bad !! My heart hurts for her family & and how much she will be greatly missed!! I have never meet such a sweet & kind person!
I did not know Krystal personally, I very well could have met her at some point though and I don’t remember because I was so young, but she was best friends with cousins of mine and seeing their posts over the last few days has hurt my heart greatly. I am thinking of Krystal, her family and all her friends. I hope Krystal rests in peace, may her loved ones know they have a great guardian angel.
My deepest sympathies,
Gabrielle
I have worked with Krystal for many years and was always grateful for her helpful attitude, quick
smile, and her willingness to put in the extra mile for our school. On a personal level, she shared many funny personal stories with me which I will cherish. I am heartbroken for the family.
Rest in peace Krystal,
From all of us at Aspen Academy Savage, MN
Krystal was the yearbook rep for my school for many years. She was always so kind, helpful and patient with us. She will be greatly missed. So sorry for your loss.
Krystal was my first yearbook friend/coworker that I met during some training in Kansas. We kept in touch ever since and anytime we had a sales rally, or summer meeting that included Canadians she always made sure to seek me out. On my most recent visit to Minnesota for work she found the time to treat me to dinner and lots of laughs. Being from Canada I didn’t get to see her often, but we shared yearbook stories and learned from each other along the way. I can tell she was one of the best, her advisers loved her and she will be missed by so many…Deepest condolences to her family friends and her MI coworkers/family..from her yearbook friend in QK Territory Canada-Kate
I’ve known Krystal for at least 3-4 years. Working with her as the co-adviser of my kids school yearbook, but also as a fellow Lifetouch employee. She was often my sounding board when I was testing out new ideas on how to use our data, etc. I had spoken to her so many times in the last couple of weeks regarding some new emails we were working on and asking her opinions and ideas. I am absolutely heartbroken. My condolences to her family!
I worked with Krystal for a long time. Her MI territory was one of my first territories when I became an AE. She was always sweet and kind! Krystal, you will be missed by so many. Rest in peace. I’m am very honored and privileged to call you my friend. Fly high darlin 🙏👐❤️🙏👐❤️
I just learned of Krystal’s passing. I feel so sad. I worked with Krystal for years via Lifetouch when I was one of the teacher advisors of Yearbook Club at the school where I teach (Math and Science Academy in Woodbury, MN). She was always so kind and helpful to the kids and to me. She will be missed. My thoughts are with her family and friends. Be well and know that Krystal made a positive impact at my school.
I remember Krystal as a little girl in California. She was a beautiful, sweet and happy go lucky child. She always seemed to have a smile on her face. It sounds like she had these qualities her whole life. Though her light may have gone out, there is another bright beautiful star in the sky. I’m so deeply saddened, Rose and my heart goes out to you and your family ❤️
My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends at this very difficult time. May God keep you all close and comfort you in the days ahead.
This saddens me greatly. Krystal was my yearbook rep and was so good at what she did. She had the patience needed for all those last minute questions. So sorry to hear this.
One of my favorite parts about working on the yearbook was that I got to know Krystal. When speaking last week she was still encouraging me and helping me with things beyond our annual yearbook. She was always willing to go the extra mile, not because it was her job, but because she loved helping people and believed in what she did. Her support and passion left a permanent mark on me. My deepest condolences to her family and friends.
Thank you Krystal, for the many smiles, believing in me, and being a good friend. I already miss you.
Krystal was simply the Best! She and I worked together for the last 5 years creating our yearbook for Lake Middle School in Woodbury Mn. We shared many fun times together and the students absolutely loved her as well. Her patience and sense of humor got me through deadlines and new Yearbook formats that were challenging to say the least. My heart goes out to her family and friends.
I worked with Krystal as my Lifetouch yearbook rep for the last few years. We would talk about life and trips and put families. She was a wonderful lady and i will miss her dearly. So sorry for your loss.
