 The
Gentle Spirit Of “Mrs. Christine”
Definitions of the word “saint” include “a
holy person; who after death, will have a privileged place
in heaven; one who is kind and patient in dealing with difficult
people or situations.” If ever there was a saint living
on this earth, it must be Christine Critcher.
