In loving memory of our mother and most cherished grandmother, Christina Marie Donnellon, she peacefully passed away on March 4, 2025, and is now reunited with her husband, Daniel Donnellon, and their son, David Donnellon, in heaven
Christina, born on March 30, 1956, was a strong woman who embodied optimism and grace in her life. She had a heart for seeing the best in people and situations, and her laughter could light up any room.
She was a hard-working waitress always serving breakfast sunny side up with a smile. Christina found joy in the outdoors, sewing, crafts, baking, and always had a cup of coffee in hand and a cup to offer.
She was a devoted mother to Justine Short (Rhodes) and Shannon Donnellon, a loving sister to Vanessa Pilarowski, Rose Nieman (Norm), Donna Wilson (Mark), John Donnellon (Becky), and Tim Donnellon (Maureen), and an aunt to many. Christina was most proud of the title "Grandma House," and she cherished her grandchildren, Seth, Carter, and Annie, more than anything.
Christina's legacy lives on as a testament to the love she shared with her family and friends. We will forever hold the memories we made together close to our hearts, while we miss her dearly, we celebrate her freedom in heaven.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, March 29, 2025, at 2pm at Lighthouse Baptist Church, located at 52260 Washington Street in New Baltimore, 48047.
Arrangements in care of Jowett Funeral Home-New Haven.
