So very sad to hear of the passing of one of the kindest and sweetest woman I have met. I lost my mother when I was 21 and know how it is most grievous, so may you girls find comfort in her memory as she will live on through you with her example of the love that she displayed.
I am so thankful that she took me into her home for Christmas and I will never forget her kind and happy ways.

Jessica, Jennifer, Julia and Jerrika,

I was so sad to hear about Auntie Christine. I always enjoyed her annual Christmas visits, as she was full of good stories and laughs. Whatever challenges your mom faced she still lived her life with a smile, and that's what I'll always remember about her.  She is with your dad now, and I hope that brings you some solace and comfort. Sending mine and Anthony's condolences, and wishing you strength during this difficult time.

Shared on behalf of Christine's brother, John:

On June 12, 2021, I experienced one of the saddest moments of my life when I was told that my little sister Christine passed away. It’s hard to believe she’s gone – only a week beforehand, on June 4, I celebrated Christine’s 66th birthday with her and Jerrika at IHOP. She talked about going on a cruise to the Baltic countries with Jerrika; my wife and I did a similar trip years ago and I told her that she would love it. She was looking forward to it and I was excited for her, knowing how much she loved to travel.  

Despite the many health and personal challenges Christine faced over the last 20 years, including the loss of our parents, her beloved husband Gene and her good friend, Jackie, she still always faced the world with a smile. Every time I saw her, she was always positive and wanted to live life to the fullest. I’m so thankful she had the support of her four daughters — Jessica, Jennifer, Julia and Jerrika; the girls were Christine’s rock. She loved her children so much and was never without one of her daughters when I visited her. 

Now Christine’s spirit is with mom, dad and Gene, who are saying, “Christine, now you are with us – there’s no more sadness, no more pain and no more lonely days because you’re with those who love you.” I will always remember and miss my little sister.

Love your brother Johnny
