Christine "Chris" Fay Kohring

Cristine Fay Kohring, born to Kent and Virginia Kohring on October 9, 1955, passed away in Bruneau at the family farmhouse.

Chris was raised in Bruneau – Little Valley. She graduated from Mountain Home High School and received a nursing degree from Nebraska Methodist School of Nursing. Chris had a long nursing career of over 36 years. She worked at S. Lukes in Boise at the start of her career then did travel nurse assignments for three years before returning to St. Lukes. She worked in many areas in the hospital including thew emergency room, intensive care, cardiac care and maternity. While Chris was in Boise, she belonged to a quilting club and made many beautiful quilt tops, her precision while making them was exceptional. 

                After Virginia became wheelchair bound from a spinal stroke, Chris became her caretaker. She lovingly cared for her for 9 years until her passing in 2019. 

                Chris spent the last years at the old farmhouse living a quiet life. She loved watching the wildlife around the farm. She especially enjoyed the hummingbirds in the spring, the horned owls with their young in the summer and the geese in the fall. 

                Chris is preceded in death by her parents, Kent and Virginia; brother Gary Kohring of Twin Falls, and many aunts uncles and cousins.
