Help honour Kristina Belcher’s legacy of love & kindness. Support her farewell & her daughter Bella’s future during this heartbreaking time
Canterbury
Kristina (Krissy) Belcher has been one of the world’s brightest lights, radiating joy, love, and kindness. Her beautiful spirit has left a lasting impact on all who had the privilege of knowing her, and she will live on through the memories we share.
Krissy’s journey has not been without trauma. Eighteen years ago, she lost her twin sister to suicide and has faced her own struggles with mental health and bipolar. Despite these hardships, Krissy remained positive and giving to others.
Seven years ago, Krissy was diagnosed with breast cancer. She faced this battle with incredible courage, but the cancer returned as bone cancer and has now spread to her liver. Devastatingly, Krissy has been given only days or, at most, a few weeks to spend with her loved ones.
Krissy will leave behind her 14-year-old daughter, Bella, who has no father and will be lovingly cared for by Krissy’s parents, John and Dinka. This is not the first time they have stepped in selflessly, as they also raised the son of their other daughter and her husbands passing. Despite their immense sacrifices, they have always given generously to others and would never ask for help themselves.
With the holiday season bringing sadness instead of joy for Krissy’s family, we are reaching out for support. Contributions will help ease the financial burden of funeral costs and provide some security for Bella’s future.
On behalf of Krissy, Bella, and her family, we thank you for your kindness and aroha.
I am Kristina's youngest brother. Funds will be released to our Dad John.
Funds will cover Krissy's funeral costs and final wishes. Any extra contributions will go into a trust account for her daughter, Bella.
Goodbye and see you soon beautiful 29 December 2024
Yesterday, our beautiful Krissy passed away, surrounded by her loving family.
On behalf of the Belcher family, we extend our gratitude for the incredible outpouring of love, support, and prayers over the past few weeks. Krissy and all of us felt the warmth of your kindness every step of the way. As we navigate the arrangements in the coming days, we will share details of her service for all who wish to join us, whether in person or in spirit.
In this time of grief and loss, we reflect on the love, meaning, and impact Krissy brought to our lives. She taught us to be kind, positive, and to fight with strength, no matter the challenges we face.
"What we have once enjoyed deeply we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us." Though Krissy has left this physical world, she lives on through us and around us. We take comfort in the promise of eternal life, as shared in Scripture:
"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." – John 3:16
Krissy’s faith reassures us that she is now shining down on us alongside her beautiful twin sister Nikola, her grandparents, and our uncle Pete. We carry Krissy’s light with us always, honoring her legacy of love, strength, and resilience. See you soon beautiful. We love you forever and always.
