Condolence: We were so fortunate to meet up with my long term friend when Chris and Murray came to Scotland on holiday. It had been 48 years since we graduated from nursing together and had spent our high school days together. We were only separated by my emigrating to England, but always thought of her as my close friend. I am enormously proud of what she achieved in her life in which she always gave or sought to give to others. Her closeness and happiness in her family was always prevalent, and Christine was a warm and supportive presence. I know she will be sadly missed by her family and colleagues, and will struggle to come anywhere near to her generosity and love. Special thoughts of Murray her best friend and support. Love to everyone, Phyllis and Bob James

Condolence: My Deepest Sympathy, Please remember that your loss is shared by many friends who care and that you are all in our thoughts, hearts and prayers. Peace, Kenneth Searson

Condolence: Dearest Christine; Although I cannot be there to pay my respects today in person, I wanted to let you know what a profound impact you had in my life. As one of your 'counterpart' grandmothers, I will do my best to honour you by continuing to share the smallest joys with our grandchildren, something you were so incredibly good at, and I promise to try to live up to the impossible standards you set for love, kindness and care in your family and the community. I feel so lucky to have known you and am pained that I will never hear your soft, welcoming voice, always happy to chat and to swap stories about the children and grandchildren. I feel truly honoured and humbled to have known someone as unselfish as you. You will be deeply missed.

Condolence: Christine touched the lives of so many people. Those of us who knew her through the Glebe Co-op Playgroup remember what a pleasure it was to be with her and to experience her upbeat, can-do attitude and people skills. A wonderful woman! Sincere condolences to all of the family. Elaine and Randal

Condolence: Sincere condolences to Murray, Chris and all the family. We remember what a dedicated and hard-working spouse and mother Christine was and how much joy she took from watching her sons play hockey and from all that was involved in parenting three growing children. Our thoughts are with you. Theresa Wallace and John Dance

Condolence: There are no words. None that can say how much Christine will be missed. We first met in grade one and remained friends throughout high school. Although we seldom saw each other for years at a time after that, we were always able to pick up our friendship each time we met. That is the kind of person she was! When we were lucky enough to have my brother-in-law placed in a TCE home, we were reminded of all the wonderful things Christine had accomplished in her life and Billy's last years were brighter because of her hard work and dedication to the rights of all people. Our thoughts are with you Murray and your family at this difficult time.

Condolence: I had the pleasure of working with Christine at the May Court Hospice. She was a great partner on our shifts. I first met her as she interpreted for our training sessions and then got to join her on one of the butterfly release days. I believe Christine's sister, Merry, was and may still be a friend of my sister Debbie Grisdale. I knew Merry in Toronto many years ago. Small world. My condolences to all the family on the loss of a fine and committed person.

Condolence: My deepest condolence to you all and the families. It has been sudden unbelievable that she was gone so quick. She has been so wonderful interpreter with my team for the last several years. It has been so privileged and appreciated to work with her. She would be sorely missed. Nothing would replace her.

Condolence: To Mur, Adam , Nicholas,Christopher and family My deepest condolences. Christine will be remembered as a kind,caring and compassionate person,she will be missed by us all. Mac

Condolence: My friendship with Christine started in the early 80's in the neighbourhood book club. Reading and discussing about 350 books over the years was a wonderful way to get to know Christine, her bright mind, caring heart and her commitment to family and community. You have lost her far too soon, but it is hard to imagine anyone who made more of each and every day. May you find comfort and strength in the closeness of your family and a huge store of memories. All at book club mourn the loss of an amazing and cherished friend. With greatest sympathy from Don, myself and our family. Lois

Condolence: Dear Murray and Family: Our sincere condolences go out to you all during this extremeley difficult time. Christine was a wonderful human being who our family was fortunate to have met through T.C.E. and kept in touch with for many, many years. Our brother Dougie absolutely loved his T.C.E. family and my parents (Ron and Leona Fahey) could not have been happier finding this place for Dougie. Christine has touched so many people and left a lasting impression with all those who were fortunate to have come in contact with her. Murray and family, her memories will live on forever through her dear family. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you all. Take care of yourselves and God Bless. Dean and Sheila Skuce Ron, Leona & Dougie Fahey

Condolence: Dear Murray and Family, Our deepest sympathy and love is shared with you, Adam, Nicholas, Christopher and their beautiful families. Our families have played and laughed together at our cottages in the Gatineau for almost our entire lives - we are now on our 5th generation of friendship. We will miss Christine so very, very much and cherish the many happy memories that we share. She was a remarkable woman and we admire her numerous accomplishments and the quiet way that she made such a loud impact in so many communities. With love, Cathy and Jim O'Higgins
