I just saw this on the Center for Jewelry Studies page - I cannot believe its been a year already. The website has established a very nice page for visitors to enter comments and thoughts about Christy. There is also a Memorial Scholarship Fund to attend a 4-day Jewelery Camp.
How cool is that?

I was lucky enough to meet Christy at the Maestros Exhibit in San Antonio. It was wonderful - she knew everybody - or everybody knew her! I also miss her on Antiques Roadshow.
Memorial donations may be made to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network; for more information go to pancan.org.
