Christine was born on January 1, 1964, in Mount Clemens, Michigan, to Harry and Jeannine Kriebel. She was raised in Clinton Township and graduated from L'Anse Creuse North High School. She went on to build a career as a legal assistant, but her greatest joy and most cherished role in life was being a devoted mother and grandmother.
Family was everything to Christine. She treasured time with her children and grandson and maintained close relationships with her siblings and friends throughout her life. She loved family gatherings, staying active, and making memories with the people closest to her. She especially enjoyed traveling with friends and family, always looking forward to new adventures and experiences.
Some of Christine's fondest memories were made at Crystal Lake, where her family had a cottage during her childhood. For many years, it was a special gathering place filled with family, laughter, and memories. Even after her parents sold the cottage, Christine continued the tradition of returning with her own children, keeping a place she loved close to her heart.
Christine truly knew how to enjoy life and was often the life of the party. She loved singing karaoke as “Chris the Dish” and the crowd loved her! Christine also loved fashion, and decorating her condo with photos, knickknacks and family heirlooms. Christine was a dedicated and hardworking employee, earning the respect and appreciation of her employer and co-workers. Funny, outgoing, and full of life, she was known for her loud, unmistakable, infectious laugh that could brighten any room. She had a wonderful sense of humor and a way of making every occasion more memorable. Christine’s strong work ethic and devotion to family helped shape a life filled with wonderful memories, much laughter, and success.
Christine will be remembered for her unconditional love of family, her friendships, and the laughter she brought to those around her. Her legacy of love, laughter, and cherished memories will live on for generations.
She will be deeply missed by her children, Stuart (Kourtney) Blashill and Emma Blashill; her cherished grandchildren, Violet and Stuie Blashill; her siblings, Robert Kriebel, Eric (Kim) Kriebel, Renee (Joe) Berak, and Fred (Kari) Kriebel; many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews; and her companion, Tim Younes.
