It's been three years since and finally I'm coming to terms with the loss.
Christine was there for me in so many amazing ways.I tried everything to help her. Coca cola gave her relief. Doctors could not help. I miss her every second. I was happy to read other notes from people in 2024, and 2023. Thank you for sharing. bd

This a day and at least two years short of learning of Christine's death. I worked with her on the international Showcase of Children's Theatre....from its inception. Children's' theatre was her love. Wonderful lady.

Did summer theater with Christine in Geneva, NY at Hobart College, will never forget her wonderful performance in Blithe Spirits with Doug Jones. I think she played Elvira, and it was the first time that I was aware that I was working with a truly talented and skillful actor. She was a wonderful person and friend, who took care of her fellow actors' personal problems during the hectic, intense weeks of summer theater. I wish I could have met up with her to share our memories. Fly high and gloriously, dear Chris. I love you.

I only knew Christeen in high school, but I have thought of her many times since. She was a generous and warm human that I feel privileged to have known. I know she will be missed by all she touched.

I am devastated. I also just heard this news. Christine was my boss at TheatreWorks USA. She hired me to be a marketing associate when I was 24 years old and very green. I came to New York to pursue being an actress and she gave me the opportunity to work for an incredible theater company. she was always my cheerleader and always a wonderful role model. We had a lot of fun together and I will miss her beautiful spirit.

I'm so sorry to hear of Christine's passing. I knew her when we were all young and working for Theaterworks/USA. She was a wonderful, energetic, irreverent, enthusiastic friend and colleague, and I wish her family comfort and solace in this sad time.

The world lost a beautiful soul! I have only known Christine by our many many phone conversations, emails and letters. She was a character to say the least! We developed a special relationship over the past few years, It started with me as her personal banker but turned into storytelling and sharing life moments. I will truly, truly miss her so much! Sending love and hugs to heaven!!

Christine was always outgoing and friendly. Just a very nice person, outside of her professional accomplishments. I will not forget her.
