I had the pleasure of working with your Mother at Century 21. She had great family stories she would share with me and we had more than a few laughs together. I also worked with Christine a few times at some closings...just wanted to say I got a kick out of her and that I know she loved her family very much. My thoughts are with you. And Norene, if you are looking down on us all, Fly High!!!~Peg.

Bandon and Jill,
So very sorry for your loss of your Mother. Healing at a time like this is easier when you know she was loved and you loved her. It is only when you have children of your own that you realize how much she taught you. And from what I have seen of you two as a parents she did a great job.
Our thoughts are with you.
