Christine, through hard work and determination, put herself through nursing school while working at Starbucks. She graduated from San Jacinto College with an Associate’s Degree in Nursing in 2009. Christine loved life and was very creative. She enjoyed art, making crafts and customizing thoughtful gifts for friends and family. Christine developed a passion for the outdoors through her relationship with Marcus which included hunting, fishing, biking, and boating. Her favorite pastime was sitting on her back porch or around an evening campfire visiting with friends and family. She always forged her own path and was always the brave one whether it was to ski first down the mountain, swing on a rope swing or get up on the water skis. Christine was fearless in everything she did. She always painted her own canvas and was truly a free spirit. Christine will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved her.
