GOYETTE – Christine Betty (nee White), late of Victoria, passed away on June 10, 2012 at the age of 75. She was born in Toronto, ON on December 5, 1936. At the age of 11, the family moved to Victoria and settled in the Esquimalt area. Deeply missed by her loving family – married to husband Arnold for over 57 years, sons Ray and Laurie (Gail) and daughter Betty, and 3 granddaughters. Chris was always known for her passion for Elvis, her signature colour purple, her gracious hostessing skills and her delicious meals. She was a good friend and neighbour and will be greatly missed by all.
A private service will be held, followed by gathering of friends at the family home at 1 pm on Friday, June 15, 2012. At Chris’s request, donations can be made to a charity of choice. Condolences may be offered to the family below.

Marc Bell My deepest sympathy to you and family, Arnold, on Christine’s passing. She was so thoughtful when my wife Gerd died, and concerned for my health later. In that sense she’s still around as a good neighbour and I appreciate that. Good memories! All the best, Marc
