Chris was such a loving and devoted wife, mother, sister and friend. She often spoke about her family and how much they meant to her. She was a special friend to my sister, Liz, and to all of the Azars. We are so saddened that she is no longer lighting up our lives, and we wish you peace in the months to come.

I wish to express my deepest regrets I apologize for not being at the service this morning- I miss read & My son Chas & I are ready to go in the morning- I had him get a good outfit together & I already set my alarm I don’t know how I missed it & read Sunday, instead of Saturday My timing has been off lately & I feel that My Aunt Chris Hausmann was taking from this Earth way too soon also. She was only 59 & had a lot of Love & Life & Laughter to still share I don’t know how I made such a dumb mistake- I am sorry. Aunt Chris’ spirit lives on & I know she loves me & forgives me. I want all the Hausmann family to know that I am here for them any time they call. I appreciate all the happy memories & I dearly loved my Aunt Chris Hausmann.

My deepest sympathies to the families of Christine. We met years ago, and I always she was such a warm and happy person. We had nursing in common, and she always made me feel welcome at the Yarber family gatherings. Kindness is never forgotten. May the Lord give you comfort even thru the sorrow of her passing.

We had the gift of knowing, loving, and sharing a bit of Chris's life. She always had a positive approach to all life's problems and was willing to help you solve them. Her gift of humor and gab made any situation fun and this was very useful in nursing. She was an excellent nurse! Her patients and staff loved her. This is where I meant Chris. We were working partners at Memorial Hospital in Belleville IL. I did not know it at the time but she was a blessing in my life. She shared her Yarber family with me many Christmas' baking cookies. It was a day of holiday fun that I will always treasure with a very loving family. May God Bless her husband and children,Mom, sisters, bother,and other family members at her untimely death to undertand and to go on and live life to the fullest like she did. She loved you all! She shared many stories about her children that she treasured. I can only imagine how she adored her grandchildren. And Ron, what can I say, you were her only love! You have our deepest sympathy. Love to all , Mary & Kirk

My deepest sympathy to the Hausemann & Yarber Families. Chris & I worked together at Memorial in Belleville. She was a wonderful person & nurse. She & I would trade shifts. She worked for me during HS football season so I could watch my son play & I would work for her during HS basketball season so she could watch her son play. She will be greatly missed!

Chris was an awesome person and I was lucky to know her. Even with everything she had going on, she was kind enough to help me through my tough times. That is just the type of person she was, so kind hearted. My condolences are with the Yarber family.
