My condolences to the family. Miss Korinek was my first supervisor right out of high school. She was the most amazing person and left a lasting impression on my life to this day. I truly loved and appreciated her. God bless her legacy.

I remember Christine from the years lived in Houma and attending Grace Lutheran Church. Her walk with Christ was admirable and the wisdom she shared with me on many occasions was tremendously helpful. I will always remember her stopping to buy a birthday cake for my first camping retreat with the Grace Youth Group. While I know she is enjoying her heavenly home, I know you all miss her a great deal. Take comfort in that your eternal destination will be together in heaven.

My condolences to all of Ms. Korineks family. She was the first employer I ever had, hiring me right out of high school. Ive often thought of her over the years as she made a lasting impression on my life. Just a beautiful spirit. God bless.
