Christie impacted many lives over the years with her welcoming spirit, light-hearted wit, generosity and genuine care for people.
Christie found joy in serving others, especially those who needed help the most. She and Milton participated in numerous mission trips to various parts of Africa, many through Concordia Lutheran Ministries, where she and Milton served on the board and various committees.
