Christine Raenell Ambriz Gonsalves
Born in Corpus Christi, Texas in 1975
Died in Sacramento, California in 2020
Christine was a loving mother of two beautiful kids, Brianna and Jayden. She always had something going on: working since age 15 at the Old Sacramento Sweets Shop, graduating from Rio Linda High School, Photoshop certificate from Sac City College, other schooling for property management, kids’ outings, friends and family over to her and our house, thoughtful gifts, crafty gifts, camping, Bri’s cheerleading trips all over California, getting Jay and Bri to their baseball games, forever pestering everyone in our pool, fixing Brianna’s hair just right, planning birthday parties and our anniversary parties, getting two year old Jayden to eat something besides cantaloupe , loving everyone no matter what, spending loving time with her nephew Gabriel, changing her hair color, getting one more tattoo and one with her sister, breaking her leg in a motorcycle accident, never having to work at her smile or her crazy laugh, wishing she could hug Bri, Jay, Gabe and Cyndi one more time, and fighting for her life against her melanoma in her birthmark. That is and was Christine – our beautiful daughter. We nicknamed her Tinee and she gave that name to her Grandma Tinee. She also named her sister Cynthia. Don’t know where that came from but it was perfect. Just as she is now, in Jesus’ arms.
Mark 5:34
Jesus said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”
