Christine Archibald died in her fiance’s arms in last week’s attack on London Bridge and because of that, some niceness is spreading.
The 30-year-old social worker moved from Calgary to Europe to be with her fiance, Tyler Ferguson.
“Chrissy was a bright light to many, and her generosity, kind spirit and huge heart for her work in responding to issues of addictions and homelessness at the centre inspired us all,” the Calgary Alpha House said in a Facebook post.
Today her family, showing tremendous grace, recommended people start volunteering in her name.
