Christina's obituary
With heavy hearts, we bid farewell to Christina, a cherished daughter, devoted mother, and beloved friend, who left us far too soon at the tender age of 31. Christina's unexpected passing on June 17th has left a void in the lives of all who knew her, particularly her adoring 5-year-old daughter, Lilly, whom she loved beyond measure.
Christina was survived by her daughter Lilly and her adoptive parents Jon (Dad/Pops) and Tara Garrett (Mom) who accepted Christina and her sisters as their own daughters.
Christina joined the Garrett and the Craig families 13 years ago and with her she brought so much light, joy and happiness, which was amplified even more when she brought Lilly into the world and the family.
Christina's life was a testament to boundless love and unwavering dedication. As a mother, she poured her heart into nurturing Lilly, creating a life filled with laughter, warmth, and boundless affection. Her love for Lilly was evident in every moment they shared, from bedtime stories to playful adventures in the park.
Family meant everything to Christina. She was a devoted daughter, sister, and friend who cherished every moment spent with her loved ones. Her smile was radiant, her laughter infectious, and her presence illuminated every gathering. Christina's kindness and empathy knew no bounds, offering comfort and support to all who crossed her path.
Professionally, Christina was admired and respected by her peers, who became her second family. Her dedication to her work was matched only by her compassion for those around her. Christina's positivity and enthusiasm were a beacon of inspiration.
In the wake of Christina's untimely departure, her absence leaves a void in the lives of all who knew and loved her. Yet, her spirit lives on in the memories she created, the love she shared, and the lives she touched. Though Christina's time with us was tragically brief, the impact of her kindness and compassion will resonate forever.
Christina's legacy of love and devotion will endure through her daughter, Lilly, whom she adored more than words can express. Let us remember Christina not with sorrow, but with gratitude for having been blessed by her presence. May she find eternal peace, knowing she was cherished beyond measure and will be sorely missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Arrangements for a Celebration of Christinas life are forthcoming and will be shared with those who wish to pay their respects and celebrate Christina.
