Christine Marie Gamble, June 29th, 2018

“Life is better when you’re laughing.”

It is with a heavy heart and great sadness that the family of Christine Marie Gamble announces her passing after a short but hard-fought battle with wide-spread cancer on June 29th, 2018, at the age of 54. Chris was an awesome wife, mother, and daughter, and was respected and loved by her family, friends, and co-workers.

Chris will be fondly remembered for her infectious laugh, thoughtfulness, kindness, overwhelming generosity, and big heart. Chris would say, “Life is better when you’re laughing.,” and she always provided us with lots of laughs.

Chris was a dedicated team leader for the Guardian Insurance Company for 30 years. She was appreciated for her caring attitude, integrity, teamwork, and her commitment to excellence.

Chris will be lovingly remembered by her husband Bill of 34 years, her son Taylor, and her parents Dutch and Carol Ann Wolfe.

Chris loved little sayings and touched the heart of many lives, so I will leave you with this little saying called “Forever in Your Heart:” “If there ever comes a day where we can’t be together, keep me in your heart. I’ll stay there forever.” (Winnie the Pooh)

Chris will be deeply missed.

A Celebration of Life will be held for Chris on September 22nd from 3:00 – 9:00 p.m. at The Commons, Mukogawa Fort Wright Institute, 4000 W. Randolph Road, Spokane, WA, 99224.

Please come join the family in her celebration.
