Not sure what to say?

Beautiful, sweet Christine, sister, mentor and friend. You will be truly and deeply missed. I am delighted that you rejoice in our Fathers Presence and are celebrating with Him now but Id be lying if I said I havent shed a tear for you looking back to our years together on the NJ WIC team! Youre smile always lit up the room and your Spirit would lift anyones elses up whenever they had a rough day or we were swamped with 300+ appts and calls :) your strength and perseverance through any trial...

My deepest condolences to your family.
May you suffer no more and rest eternally in peace.

Prayers for your family!!!! Im my thoughts daily

There are no words to adequately express what I feel. My sister, my friend, my rock. You taught me so much, you held my hand through every trial and tribulation in my life and always saw me through. You gave me the strength and independence that defines my life today. We didnt always see eye to eye but we always saw heart to heart. I love you Tina and will live the rest of my life trying to make you proud and if I am half the woman you were, I will consider it a success. Until we meet again,...

Rest in peace Christina. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Love you all. Pat
