Christine Elizabeth Marsalese. Age: 64, Passed away on Saturday, January 27, 2024. Beloved wife of Michael. Loving mom of Jonathan (Lauren) and Joseph. Cherished grandma to Griffin. Dearest daughter of Bill and Joanne. Dear sister of Mike, Pat, Steve, Greg, Jerry, Suzie, Dan, Joe, Chuck and Cindy. Chris was a loving person who always prioritized people and experiences. She was the life of the party, loved to host, organized activities, and welcomed endless people into her home. It was rare to see Chris without a smile on her face and her laugh could be heard throughout. She was always there to take people in, drive out for visits, and organize games and get to togethers. Chris loved her activities, whether it was scrapbooking that turned into wine club, golf league, bunco nights, or exploring new restaurants with friends; Chris could be found right in the middle of it all.

Chris was the first to jump into action when her loved ones needed it the most. She was a safe place for her family. She was your first phone call in troubling times and the ear of empathy and reason. She was a calming presence and a guiding light to all.

She will be in our hearts and in our memories always.
