On May 23, 2025, our beloved mom and grandma, Kristina Noelle Morley—lovingly known as Tina or Kris—passed away peacefully in her sleep at home in Portland, Oregon. She was only 41 years old.
Kristina was the kind of person who made life feel softer. A true homebody, she loved baking, crafting, and creating a warm, safe space for the people she loved. She was the devoted mother of two daughters, Arianna and Mikayla, and the proud grandma of her little sunshine, Ezra. Her world revolved around her family, and everything she did was filled with love.
Over the past year, Kristina showed incredible strength as she completed seven rounds of chemotherapy. Through it all, she remained hopeful, kind, and full of quiet courage. Just nine days before her passing, she got to fulfill one of her lifelong dreams—a family trip to Hawaii. It was the happiest we’d seen her in a long time, and we’re so grateful she got to experience that joy before saying goodbye.
Her passing has left a huge hole in our hearts, and while there are no words to truly capture the loss we feel, we want to give her the memorial she deserves—something simple, heartfelt, and full of the love she gave so freely.
We’re asking for help to raise funds for:
• Memorial and celebration of life expenses
• Cremation costs
• A small gathering for close friends and family
Any donation—no matter how small—means the world to us and helps us give her the peaceful goodbye she deserves. If you’re not able to donate, sharing this story is just as appreciated. Thank you for loving her with us, and for helping us celebrate a life so beautifully lived.
With love and gratitude,
Arianna, Mikayla & Ezra
