Christina was a super friend of mine when we lived close by in New Brighton. I was so sorry to hear that she died but I know she has been sick for a long time. I have some really fond memories of her and I wish her family love and strength.

She was so kind and caring and lived life her way which I always admired.
I know she loved her family dearly and so enjoyed time spent with her grandchildren.
You will miss her so much. My love to you all.
