A self-described shy person, Chris Divens managed to engage people as she walked through her South End neighborhood, showing interest in their life stories and their pets. Intimidated by public speaking, she could not be silent when justice was at stake. Born and raised in the small community of Level Green, PA, she embraced adventure, marrying the love of her life Jim Kfoury and moving to his native Boston where she worked with him to build his company, JK Glass, and traveled together all over the US and Paris, Venice, and Rome. On May 23rd, Chris, 58, succumbed to the cancer she had lived with for 15 years. During that time, she never let her disease define her. She worked and saw the world, went dogsledding, took a wide range of courses, including many on spiritual healing and human wholeness, reveled in a family junket to explore her Swedish heritage, and loved being her pets’ human (cats Avery and Murphy; Westies Izzy and Bella). She enjoyed time with family and friends, entertaining them with her warmth, great sense of humor and her giving heart.
