Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
As we bid Melissa Ann farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Melissa Ann is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She is survived by: her husband Gregory Christman; her children, Bradley Christman (Candace), Matthew Christman (Ceanna), Rebecca Cichy (Adam) and James Christman; her grandchildren, Lillian Christman and Theodore Cichy; her sister Heidi Kivi; and her parent Judith Payton (Kivi).
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Melissa's name to the National Breast Cancer Foundation to support breast cancer research (http://www.nationalbreastcancer.org.) or Harbor House (https://harborhousewi.org) A Safe Harbor in Times of Crisis, one of her favorite charities.
