My thoughts and my prayers go out to the family and friends of Christine. Although it seems she was taken way too soon Gods plan has been put in motion! She is in great company with the many Monarchs that have gone before her. Be at peace with the Lord Christine.

Dear Cote Family,
May you feel the blessed assurance of God’s perfect plan during this time of tremendous loss; we too are greatly grieved by the passing of Christine. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for sharing your lovely daughter with us. There are no words to convey our deep feelings for Christine and the immense gratitude for the gift of her friendship. She was a wonderful example for the children and for us all. She taught many lessons about perseverance in the face of adversity and trust in Jesus. She was a loyal heavenly servant, a holy inspiration, and above all, a true bride of Christ. We cherish you, Christine, we love you, and we miss you. God bless the Cote family, we carry you in our hearts. Psalm 91.

Christine was always one of my favorite little girls from Santiago. Even though I had not seen her in many years, I thought of her often and how sweet she was as a child. I"m sorry I missed her these past many years. God be with you all. Love, Pam Stokoe

It is with great sadness that I read today of Christine's passing. She was an amazing young woman who lived her life with grace and courage. I will always remember her from Santiago Elementary and as an adult giving a speech at the Fullerton Cancer Walk. She lived her life to its fullest. I will be praying for the family during this difficult time. Colleen Coombs
