Personal note from Kristen's Family

Our family is absolutely heartbroken to share that Kristen Nicole Wurdack passed away on March 14, 2026—just days after celebrating her 40th birthday on March 7.

Kristen was a beloved mother, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, niece, partner, friend, dog mom, and so much more to everyone who knew and loved her. She will forever be remembered for her thoughtfulness, kind heart, infectious laugh, quick wit, and intelligence. She had a special love for flamingos—so if you see one, it just might be her way of saying hello. 🦩

Thank you all for the love and support you’ve shown during this incredibly difficult time. It means more to us than words can express, and we are deeply grateful for each and every one of you.

For those who would like to join us, funeral services will take place Saturday, March 28, 2026.
— 9am-10am: Public visitation at Seven Holy Founders church
—10am: Mass at Seven Holy Founders
— Burial to follow at Resurrection Cemetery
— A reception will follow the burial at St. John Paul II Parish Center. We warmly invite you to join us to celebrate Kristen’s life and share memories together. If you plan to attend, we kindly ask that you RSVP under the “Events” tab on this website so we can prepare accordingly.
