She migrated to the United States in 1994 and lived in Plant City and then settled in Lakeland Florida where she attended Crystal Lake Middle School, Lakeland Senior High, Remington College and Polk State College and obtained her degree in Computer Engineer.
Christine was trustworthy, kind hearted, reliable and extremely smart. Christine enjoyed working with her hands; she was skilled in arts and in repairing computers and phones. She kept the car she received at age sixteen, and was the sole mechanic, and was planning on getting an antique tag for the car on her next birthday. She worked at several jobs where she was instrumental in developing process to help streamline the job functions for smooth and effective operation.
One of her favorite Bible verses was Ecclesiastes 9:10 “whatever thy hand find to do, do it with thy might.” She loved her God and her family, and was the glue that kept the family together. She created family chat group where the family came together to meet and greet and form bonds that kept them strong. She enjoyed helping others, not only by meeting their needs, but by giving them tools to help them achieve and to be independent. On the other hand, she was a no-nonsense person and will not tolerate foolishness.
