A nice lady. Your battles are over. Rest in peace Christene.
Daniel Margolis
Kind; Giving; Loving; ACCEPTING. NO ONE was as blessed as I, when it came to having a Mother-In-Law. Her spirit is with me every day. I will love you forever.

The word that comes to mind INSTANTLY while thinking of her is generous. She never failed to make us feel special and loved. She truly cared about how the boys were doing; how us girls were making out and that sincerity radiated out of her like a sunny, warm hug. She was truly a beautiful person. May we all strive to be a little more like Christene.

Our most heartfelt sympathies to Uncle Bob, Andrea, and Robbie.
Auntie Chris was one of the kindest, most loving, and fun aunts anyone could ever ask for. She wore her heart on her sleeve and lived and loved life to the fullest alongside Uncle Bob, her family, and her friends.
Heaven has truly gained a wonderful angel, and she will be deeply missed. Auntie Chris, you were a truly beautiful person inside and out. Rest in peace — we will always love you, and I promise your contagious laugh and big heart will never be forgotten.
Keep smiling down on us from heaven. We’ll be sending hugs and kisses your way from here.
With all our love,
Paula and Brittney

Bob, Robbie, and Andrea — my thoughts and prayers are with you all during this incredibly difficult time.
Christine was the kindest, most thoughtful, and loving sister-in-law I could ever have asked for. She was always so welcoming and inviting, no matter how full the house was. She would simply say, “Oh, the more the merrier — come on down.” Her laughter alone could fill a room with love and happiness and put smiles on everyone’s faces.
Chris, you were more than a sister-in-law — you were a true friend. We raised our babies together in our early years, shared so many unforgettable memories, and built a bond that will never fade. Even though both you and Russ had to take your journeys to heaven before us, I promise you I will always be there for Bob and the kids.
Gone but never forgotten. Love you always.
With love,
Donna

Pop, Andrea and Robbie — my thoughts and prayers are with you all during this incredibly difficult time.♥️
From the first day I met you, you made me feel loved. Your open arms, your genuine smile, and your contagious laughter instantly made me feel like I belonged.
You loved me like your own daughter, without judgment, without conditions. You were always there for me, steady and kind, and you never made me feel anything but accepted and safe.
I am so grateful for every memory we shared and for the blessing of knowing you through Robbie. You were like my mom, and that bond will stay with me forever.
I will toast a glass of wine in your honor, smiling through the tears, remembering your laughter and the love you gave so effortlessly.
Rest peacefully. You will always be remembered!
With love,
Aurelia (Alice)

Aunty Christine you were my best friend, aunty and I often looked to as my 2nd mom. We travelled the world together. When I needed a hug, smile, assurance or even discipline you were there. Words can’t describe how much I will miss you, your giggle and generous love. You’re with other family and I hope it was one heck of a reunion !!!
I love you and will forever cherish our memories. I am so grateful for uncle Bob, Andrea and Robbie who will continue to live on your legacy and wishes. I love you uncle Bob, Andrea and Robbie, your mom and wife was incredible, beautiful and amazing. Rest in peace
