I am so sad to hear of the passing of Christine. I met Christine & Clarence a few years back & then lost contact. But when we used to get together for a gab session, I would walk in the house & feel so welcomed & have a lot of good laughs. Our condolences to Clarence & Family.

My aunt was such an amazing woman. I will forever miss our visits. She was always there for me when I needed a listening ear, and somehow always knew when I needed one. My heart aches for my dear uncle and cousins, and her grandchildren. Aunty loved her angels, and has now become one. Aunty, I love you!! And I miss you. I'll see you in my dreams at that place we talked about. - Posted by: Jane (Niece) on: Jan 27, 2015

Christine and I were good friends when we were in elementary school at General Byng school until her family moved to Gimli. I visited her there and we went to "Gone with the Wind" in town. Her Mom made great "Nips" and I enjoyed many times with their family. I was so shocked and saddened to read this in the paper today. My condolences to her family, Sorry for your loss. - Posted by: Dorothy Dunlop Wiens (friend) on: Jan 27, 2015
