Age 68, passed away on Tuesday, April 30, 2019, surrounded by her loving family. Christine was born in Brookfield, WI, on March 23, 1951, the daughter of the late Henry and Ruth (Schrubbe) Braun. Christine graduated high school and attended college where she met her husband Michael Pelletier who preceded her in passing on June 5, 2012. She was also preceded in passing by a son, Sean Pelletier and a sister, Bernice Shotola. Christine was a selfless woman who lived her life for her family and others. Her dedication to her children was always apparent and she leaves them with wonderful memories to cherish. She took time to home school her children and filled her days making sure their needs were met. She taught them, through her own example, the value of hard work and sacrifice. She was good with numbers and enjoyed accounting. She had a strong faith in the Lord and was a member of the Green Meadow Bible Baptist Church. Christine’s kind smile and gentle nature will be missed by all who loved her. She is survived by seven children, Amy (Darrin) Melbow, Michelle Pelletier, Sarah Crawford, Aaron, Jeanette, Caleb and Daniel Pelletier; four grandchildren, David, Lara, Sarisa and Caoilainn; two siblings, Richard and Michael Braun; many nieces, nephews and friends. |
