Eventually moving back to California where she raised a family and attended school to become a CNA and eventually LPN.  Her work as an LPN embodied her compassionate and caring nature and involved various settings, including Hospitals, Urgent Care clinics, doctor's offices, and telehealth services.

Crystal was an amazing single mother, a strong woman, and a survivor. She always placed the needs of her family above her own and worked selflessly to provide for her family.
