She was an aunt, a sister, a Confidant and a Friend to many. She was LOVE!
Christine never met a stranger. When she greeted you, it was with a “Glory Hallelujah”, “Holy Ghost Fire”, “Hanna Na Na Na”, or “You must be born again”. Christine was a faithful member of Martin Tabernacle Free Church of God in Christ for 56 years, where she served as a Minister, Usher, and Mother of the Church. As the Mother, she helped to nurture members, especially children, and serve as a guiding light to help others see the spirit of God.
Christine’s life is a testament that if you put God first, He will give you a long life full of love and joy. Now, she’s with God and is the “Wind Beneath Our Wings”!
