Christine Staco

Christine from a young age demonstrated an avid curiosity towards everything around her, and a yearning to excel and grow. She loved to go on hikes and she also loved to read, research and understand all about human behavior, positive energy, and spirituality.

Christine aced all her studies with flying colors. She successfully attended Our Lady Queen of Peace, Mary Louis Academy, Columbia University and Cornell University. She holds a Masters in Literature and was a great professor to all her students.

Despite her different successes, everyone knew that Christine considered her three children to be her biggest accomplishments. She was proud of Ama (16), Felix Jr (12) and Fernando (9). She would drop anything the second it came to her children. She was an exemplary and selfless Mom who patiently nourished her children with love, affection, knowledge. She dedicated herself entirely to them. No sacrifice was too big, and as far as she was concerned, the sky was the limit when it came to what she would do for them. All that ever mattered to her was their well being and happiness.

Christine was sweet, affectionate, friendly, simple. Although she moved a lot and lived in different states and countries, she was able to adapt easily and make new friends. She really lived the saying "Home is where the heart is". Christine had a great sense of humor: it was clever and quirky, but never mean spirited. She did not have a mean bone in her body and believed in forgiving, mending, healing.

In addition to her parents, sister and children, she is survived by her nephew Justin (TJ), her brother in law Ty, her aunts and uncles, Godparents, cousins and friends.

Condolences to the following families: Staco, Caillet, Germain, Scutt, Cuvilly, Corriss, Remy, Riviere and Towns.

She will be sorely missed and never forgotten.
