Kristine Shea Amorello

Kristine Shea Amorello of Boca Raton, Florida passed peacefully at home on December 22, 2024, after a two-and-a-half-year battle with metastatic breast cancer.

Kristine was born in Schenectady, New York to Leroy Wood Shea and Sandra S. Shea on August 21, 1976,

She was a long-time resident of Boca Raton and attended Addison Mizner Elementary School, Boca Middle School, Boca High School and later attended East Carolina University.

Kris began her career in the mortgage business in July 2001, working first in processing and closing to learn the industry from the ground up, and later as a loan officer with her parents at First Florida Mortgage Network. She enjoyed remarkable success for 10 years until the collapse of the mortgage industry when she and her parents started a property management company, Luxe Property Services, which still operates today under the guidance of her dad.

In 2012, Paradise Bank approached her to develop the start-up of a residential mortgage department which she ran very successfully until March 2020.

From March 2020 to present, Kris’ career led her to hold the position of Regional Manager for Radius Financial Group, Inc. She was a top-producing Mortgage Banker, licensed in six states as well as an avid recruiter for the company. This year, she not only achieved #4 in production for the company, but also President’s Club recognition, despite her severe health challenges.

Kris always put service above self and implemented that quality through her personal accomplishments. She was most proud of being an integral member of the Boca Raton Rotary Club and, this year elevated her position to holding the office of President. Her tireless drive led her to spearhead countless local charity functions and events.

Her personal passion included all things Ocean. She was an avid boater, angler, diver, and surfer. As a mother, Kris devoted countless hours to spending time with her children both on and off the water. Some of their favorite times together were fishing, lobstering and shark tooth hunting on the beaches of south Florida with her children.

Kristine is survived by her husband, Douglas Amorello, daughter, Marina Klemetsmo, son, Reed Klemetsmo, step-daughters Alexis and Avery Amorello, mother, Sandra Shea Siegel, Father Leroy W Shea, dad, Anthony Siegel, sister, Kimberly Barnes and brother, Kyle Shea.

Service to take place at 2:00 PM Friday January 10, 2025, at Glick Funeral Home 3600 North Federal Highway, Boca Raton, Fl. 33431.
