Katie, I am truly sorry for your loss. Your sister was always very kind and friendly to Jake and myself when she would see us at one of your get togethers. She had an infectious smile. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

How do you say goodbye to someone who made life better. No matter what I went through good or bad my friend Christina was always there to give me encouraging words. The saying: you never miss what you have until it's gone. Now I understand. Christina you will be truly missed. I loved you like my sister. I'm not going to say goodbye cause I can't even think of you gone, so I will say see you later, until God calls me home. When it's my time you better be at the gate waiting to welcome me. Love you then, love you now. Sisters for life.

Many thoughts & prayers of peace & understanding during this difficult time. The loss of a loved one is never easy and most times mere words can never fully ease such pain. I pray you find comfort in the many expressions of heart felt love for our dear Christina and know this family will continually be lifted in prayer.

Chris,
It seems like yesterday, we were just talking about you going to get Marlayna for the holiday and how excited you were to see your baby and now you are gone. I will truly miss that beautiful smile of yours and our conversations we have had over the years. We literally talked about everything and we kept each others spirit up. Just know that every time I see a butterfly I will think of you. Love you girl.

Christina was a community friend...I said that to say that she was not just your friend, she became friends with whomever she became involved with. I met Christina many years ago through my bestfriend Keya. I then became friends with her and she would join me at karaoke on Sunday nights. And when my friends met her they became friends with her. Christina was truly a people person and easy to love and get along with. We may have had a run in but her love and laughter was always enough to bring us back together. I will truly miss her presence. I will continued to pray for the family as well as for those who loved her the most. ♥♥♥♥♥

Christina was an amazing person and I enjoyed working with her. She was my inspiration and will remain an inspiration to me for the future. Although I never particularly liked butterflies, she loved them. Now, every time I see a butterfly I will think of Christina and smile. I will miss her so very much. Inherit the wind my friend...

I had the pleasure of working fairly closely with Christina for the past 5 years. I always found her to be friendly and helpful as well as sensitive and insightful. She was excellent at her job and was recognized as being highly capable and able to take on challenging projects with what seemed to be very little effort. She was highly organized and seemed to have an instinct as to what needed to be done and how to do it--with an upbeat approach. She spoke of her family every day, and it was clear to all that she loved them very much. We are still in a state of disbelief over her sudden transition but feel privileged to have known and worked with her.

Christina,
Work will never be the same. I will miss your smile and your positive outlook about everything. You were the one that would bring together everyone in the office to enjoy a good time. People always say that we should not question God's work, but right now I just don't know. The only thing I know for sure is with the big heart you had, I know you are in a better place. So just know that from now on, every time a see a butterfly I will always think of you smiling and saying good morning! I Pray for your family as I Pray for mine at their time of need. You have left a great foundation for your children, and in my heart of hearts they will represent you with pride. So rest now, and know you have made a great impact of so many. p.s. Say hello to my brother for me!

It was always nice stopping to talk with Christina at Cadillac Place. We always reminisced about everything from gaming to our children. She was always smiling and always seemed to have "peace" in her spirit. Heaven has gained another angel. My prayers are with the family.

I am glad that God allowed us to fellowship and work together. You were an amazing friend and was always so pleasant to everyone. Your kids were the most important part of your life, with your parents following closely behind. Not many people could go through life and leave their mark in other peoples hearts as you did. To the family, it's time like this that will bring you closer, use each other for support and remember that your Mom had a huge friendship circle that will be right by your side through this ordeal. I will continue to pray for each of you. To my friend, Christina rest easy and until we meet again.

I have so many fond memories of Christina. She would always greet you with her beautiful smile and kind words. Christina was a great listener, and compassionate. I am going to miss running into her in the hallways at work, or receiving the occasional text message or facebook note. Just to let you know she was thinking of you. Rest In Peace my friend.

I worked with Christina many years at MGCB and she was a friend also. She always had that beautiful smile even though things may have not been good that day. I will miss that smile.

Christina was an absolute sweetheart! Loved her kids and loved her job! I had the extreme pleasure to work with her for our annual Bring a Child to Work Day and she put SOOO much time and effort into it. We had the oldest kids there in the last few years and we joked that our kids are the worst, considering we were coordinators for the event! We often talked about our kids and how much they act alike. She knew my son by name just like I know her daughter by name. She was always doing something to HELP people! She was a coordinator for a LOT of activities and events! Her presence is ALREADY missed.....and it's only been a day! Christina CANNOT be replaced! She is genuine, invaluable, and LOVED by all! Rest peacefully Christina! Still can't believe you're gone! Only God knows! I love you! Praying for the family. Thank you for sharing her with us!

I'm honored and blessed to have known Christina. I worked with her and she briefly worked for me. She was very friendly to all, and would volunteer to head many projects having to do with helping others in addition to her regular duties. I recall her talks of her love of dance and how she wanted to take it up again. Stories of her children as they were growing from year to year. My deepest sympathy and condolences to her family for the lost of a wonderful human being.

Christina was a beautiful person, whenever I went into the office she always smiled and treated me kind. We use to walk to the parking lot together and she always had a kind word. May God comfort her family and I want them to know she was an Angel in my life.
