Rita, Cecil, Rebecca, Josh and family. Sooo terribly sorry to learn of your loss. There are no words to describe the hurt and anguish you are going through. May you find comfort in the arms of your family and friends at this time. Condolences to all of you.

I was very sad to hear about the passing of Christina. I am praying for the entire family. God bless all of the people who knew her.

Rita, Cecil, Cornelia and Steve we are both saddened by the loss you are enduring. Losing a loved one is never easy, but losing a child or niece at such a young age is even more difficult. Our hearts are broken for you and the entire family. May you find strength in each other to see you through this tragedy and find peace in the precious memories you have of Christina to allow you to share her love and undoubtedly precious devotion she had for Kevin and the kids with all of them each and every day.

Dear Kevin and Family, I was deeply saddened to hear about Christina's passing. She was a remarkable person, and it was an honour to have known her and worked with her. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your three little girls during this incredibly difficult time. If there is anything I can do to support you, whether it's lending a listening ear or helping out in any other way, please don't hesitate to reach out. Wishing you strength and comfort. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Deepest condolences to Christina's immediate and extended family during this extremely sad time. Back to the Future movies will forever remind me of Christina! May she Rest in Peace 🙏

Our deepest condolences to your family on the passing of Christina. I worked with her dad Cecil back at Casey’s in the 80’s. I remember when Rita would bring her into the restaurant as a young little girl. Thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.💐

My condolences to all the family may she rest in peace 🙏

Before we rolled out for my first ride in her dark green Sunfire, Christina warned, "Just so ya' know, I break for all animals." This was concerning because much of our time in the Sunfire was spent driving at country-road speeds. Yet sure enough, Christina slowed for the raccoons and the squirrels (I wouldn't have been surprised to witness her stop to save a turtle on the way to Strathroy) and sure enough we arrived safely every time. With Christina, we were safe to feel free. Christina took care of us all.

We are sorry to hear about Christina. May the love of friends and family and the memories you have help you through this difficult time.

Christina, I have had the pleasure of knowing you for many years and I am saddened by this news. You were and will forever be remembered as a powerhouse of a woman. Hilarious, smart as a whip, ambitious and gorgeous in and out, I’m Better for having known you. My heart goes out to your daughters and family, and I offer condolences during this difficult time.

In loving memory of a dear colleague who has left us too soon. My deepest condolences to Christina's husband, children, family, friends, and all who cherished her. May her memory always be a blessing.

For a time during our high school years, Christina carried me through. Whether a chicken parmesan dinner at The Alibi, a drive outside of the city, a concert, or an adventure all the way to Jamaica, Christina helped me escape, and we had the best of times. If we were taking a risk, Christina knew how to bring perspective and would exclaim, "What're they gonna do, steal your birthday?!" No one could ever steal our birthdays, Christina, and nothing will ever erase your smile from my heart.
