Christine was born on Nov. 10, 1968, in Rhinelander. She spent most of her young life in Wisconsin and enjoyed her teenage years in Irvine, Calif. She maintained many of the friendships formed in her early years throughout her life. Christine graduated from LUHS in Minocqua. Christine attended the University of Wisconsin Stout, and earned a bachelor of fine arts degree.
She had a successful career for 13 years in the apparel industry, employed by Levi's, Liz Claiborne, and Faye's clothing companies. In 2005, Christine followed her passion of helping others through health care working as a licensed physical therapy assistant with intensive training in lymphatic studies and sports rehabilitation.
In her spare time, Christine was passionate about her art work, Bible studies, and especially doting on her two dogs Bonnie and Clyde. She was a friend of Bill W.
Christine was deeply loved, more than words can possibly express, by her husband, family, friends, patients, and co-workers. She brightened the lives of all of us who knew and loved her. We are greatly saddened by her loss, but know she is in the loving care of our Heavenly Father.
A 2 p.m. visitation with a memorial service at 3 p.m. and reception to follow is planned for Sunday, Sept. 3 at Elmbrook Church on 777 S Barker Road, Brookfield, WI.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the "24 Hour Club Foundation" and mailed to M. Larkin at 173 Green Bay Rd. Thiensville, WI. 53092
