Christine was a kind and loving mother, grandmother, great grandmother. She loved her family with all of her heart. She enjoyed cooking delicious home cooked meals and spending time with family and friends. She also looked forward to eating biscuits and gravy prepared by her son in law, Thomas.
Christine was one of a kind, and always had a kind word to say to everyone she met. One of the sweetest traditions was to receive a phone call on your birthday and listen to her sing happy birthday. This world will be a little dimmer without her sweet presence.
