Christine J Kwoka

It is with a heavy heart that we share the passing of Christine Kwoka, age 69.

Christine was a cherished daughter of the late Marcella and John Kwoka Sr., and beloved sister to John (Ewa) Kwoka and the late Irena. She leaves behind her adored niece, Lilianna, and nephew, Bruno. She is survived by her uncle Stanley Lipka, cousin Sandra (Larry) Grenning, godson Larry Jr. and Nicole, and many loving cousins from the Klecki, Dziedzic, and McClain families.

Christine will be remembered for her grace, joyful spirit, and warm heart. She had a unique gift for making everyone feel seen and loved, a talent for telling great stories, and an infectious laugh that brought joy to all. She approached every aspect of her life, whether spending time with family and friends or traveling the world, with a passion and warmth that touched everyone around her.

Her family was the center of her world. Christine taught us the importance of our Polish heritage, the value of kindness and resilience, and how to always find the positive in life's challenges. She was our confidant, our biggest cheerleader, and the person we could always count on. We will miss her more than words can say, but we find comfort in knowing her love and light will continue to shine in our hearts forever.
