Christianne Clinton Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jun. 23, 2025.
Christianne Helen Lord-Clinton passed away on May 3, 2025, at the age of 70, in Sonora, CA. Born on January 14, 1955, Helen's early years were marked by extensive global travels, which ignited a lifelong passion for exploring the world.

Helen dedicated over 40 years to her career as a travel agent, a role that perfectly suited her love for travel and adventure, allowing her to traverse the globe. Her adventurous spirit was complemented by her deep love for animals. Helen was known for her open door policy for animals in need, providing a safe haven for numerous pets throughout her life.

She is survived by her daughter, Amber Strauch; son, Preston Spahn; and five grandchildren, Jordan, Eden, Avery, Knox, and Petra. She was preceded in death by her parents, John and Betty Lord.

A Celebration of Life will be held on July 26. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the Motherlode Feral Cat Alliance, an organization close to Helen's heart due to her love for animals. Helen's legacy of kindness, adventure, and compassion will be cherished and remembered by all who knew her.
