Christine was born on September 5, 1948, in Mumbai, India to the late Griselda and Martin Pinsent. Christine led a fulfilling life before her peaceful passing. She retired from the State of Texas Health and Human Services after dedicating herself as a secretary for years.
Christine was a long-time parishioner of St. Michael's Catholic Church in Jasper, Texas until she moved to Port Neches in 2000. She then started attending St. Anne Catholic Church in Beaumont and St. Elizabeth Catholic Church in Port Neches. Her love for plants earned her a reputation for having a green thumb. Known for her love of dancing and constant desire to be on the go, Christine also had a penchant for McDonald's Frappes. She also enjoyed shopping at the Dollar Store and Lowes. Christine will be remembered for her warm smile that could light up any room and the love she had for her two furbabies.
