Kristine Zion Obituary (1982 - 2025)

With a heavy heart, we bid farewell to Kristine Zion, known affectionately by many as Chi Ba, who brought joy and laughter to our lives. Born on March 21, 1982, in Can Tho, Vietnam, Kristine made her transition into eternity on November 12, 2025. Her infectious laughter, unwavering empathy, and generous spirit will be dearly missed but forever treasured in our hearts. Kristine was the embodiment of the adage, "Life is short, laugh while you still have teeth." She was a vibrant soul, a funny and loving woman who loved life's simple pleasures. Westminster, Colorado, was her home, but she held fond memories of her time in California. She was a beacon of positivity and always ready for an adventure, be it a trip to the casino, a shopping spree, or just enjoying the day with her loved ones. Kristine was a devoted mother who cherished her son above all else. Her love for her family was unwavering, and she found her greatest joy in their happiness. Kristine is survived by her father, Grandy Truong; her mother, Nu Bui; her half-sisters, Tammy Nguyen and Nancy Nguyen; her half-brother, Michael Nguyen; her beloved son, Brandon Dole; and her ex-husband, Chris Dole. We honor Kristine's legacy by remembering her as she truly was - a generous, empathetic, and loving soul who touched everyone she met. As Maya Angelou once said, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." Kristine made us all feel loved, cherished, and valued. Please join us in celebrating Kristine's life by sharing your memories and photos on her memorial page. Let us remember her laughter, her generosity, and the love she had for each of us.
