Mom Christine was a woman of grace, always smiling, al- ways positive, and filled with love and compassion for ev- eryone. She was the beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother of the Thomson family — a guiding light and a true role model for us all. After her husband, Dad, passed away, we didn’t want Mom to be alone. She spent her later years living with us in Thailand and returned to Canada each summer to be with family. At 96 years old, her health began to decline. Though her steps became slower, she refused to use a wheelchair. Every day, she would still walk slowly to the balcony to watch the ele- phants, to chat with visitors, to smile and greet anyone who came by. She loved those moments.
