Pearce, Christina Robyn:
Passed away suddenly at People Care A.R. Goudie, Kitchener on Saturday, December 2, 2017 at the age of 39 after a long and courageous struggle with Huntington's disease. She was born in Ottawa, Ontario on October 22, 1978.
Christina was a loving daughter to Dorothy (nee Gerber) and the late Bob Pearce (2014) and a cherished sister to Tim.

Christina grew up in Ottawa and attended Bells Corners Public School and Bell High School. Our family then moved to the Region of Waterloo where Christina received her B.Sc. degree in Environmental Science from the University of Waterloo in 2003.
Christina spent her last years at A.R. Goudie where she took great delight in keeping track of staff and listening to her music and watching her DVDs. She had many friends and loved the various activities. We want everyone at Goudie to know how much Christina loved living there and how important all of you were to her.
