Your smile will always shine bright Christine. Love you and miss you <3

This pic popped up in my memories so thought of would share it with you♥️

Dearest Irene and Family. 😇
Our deepest sympathy and prayers for dearest Christine 😇❤. I remember her as a beautiful girl growing up. My sons and I have attended her birthday parties and she was always part of Christmas events and picnics when her mom Irene was working at the bank.  May she rest in Peace . 😇No words can describe losing a child😪.  Our love and prayers always  ,
Cecilia and family 😇🌷🌼🌻❤

She loved animals so much. The neighborhood cat (not photo) was always outside and we would keep an eye on her. Once the cat started coming to and staying at my place, Christine would always message me to ask if she could come see her "Spirit Animal". I never once said "no". She had a way with animals and a way with humans and it was truly beautiful to see and experience.

That beautiful Niece of mine was so funny and sweet..I remember her making me and Danielle laugh, she always brought me joy just listening to her  share her..she was bright  and always stood her ground!! I love her and miss her! And very glad Jehovah has a memory book!! Rest well my Niece..Rest well!

We talked about so many memories this day. 

Tia Nana and uncle Dan, words can’t describe how much we will all miss Tina. You and my cousins have been in my life since my very first memories, from my birthday parties, to my cousin playing doll house with us, and Tina teaching me and Clarissa her dance routines when she was in high school to Gwen Stefani. But this last memory we made at the beach together was my most favorite of all, we listened to music and danced in the water while she sang along. I will cherish every memory I have with my cousin and our family. Tina, thank you so much for leaving this imprint on my heart forever. You are so loved always and forever.

Christine was my Dancing and Singing Queen for a long time! Christine’s mom  gave me first Easter basket ever and I remember that morning Christine was asking me to grab something from her room and actually made “hunt” for my basket. I will never forget the New Years we spent at Christine’s house and we played “I’m not okay” about 100 times! Remembering Christine singing “I will survive” at our 6th grade camp talent show and if you were there it’s was so epic! What I loved so much about Christine is that she was unapologetically herself. There’s was no one like her and she is truly one of a kind!

Christine lived up the street from me on Milton for as long as I can remember. Most of my childhood memories were spent with Christine and her family. I remember the best times of my life were spent in her bedroom watching Disney movies and American idol. We loved anything to do with singing. We would sing our hearts out any second we could. Christine had a old black Nissan Altima that me and her gfs would run around in just enjoying every breath taking view and party San Diego had to offer. That’s one thing I admired about Christine. She was so much fun and always down for a good time with a smile on her face. She was a jokester. Her parents Dan and Irene always treated me and her other friends like part of the family. There was never any judgment or lack of love coming from the McDonald’s. They always wanted to help in any way shape or form. I’ll still never forget thanksgiving at the McDonalds house. I always loved going over there cause my own mother isn’t the best cook. Sorry momma love you. One of my fondest memories of Christine was shared with her mother Irene when we attended the finally to American idol. We drove up to Los Angeles and i remember Christine saying that she wouldn’t rather go with anyone else but me that I’m the only one that would appreciate and enjoy it. And she was right! I’d never truly know how much I’d actually appreciate and value that time together. Christine… Tina. I love you baby girl. This world is so cruel. And you didn’t deserve this fate. All I can say now is your at peace. Leave the rest to us. We got your family forever And always. I’ll never forget you. You will forever be in our hearts. Long live Tina<3
