This memorial

website was

created in the memory of our loved one,

Christina Gore who was born in North

Carolina on August 02, 1975 and went to be

with God on March 02, 2007 at the age

of 31. We will remember her forever.

Christina "Christy" was taken away

from us on March 2, 2007. She was 8

1/2 months pregnant. She was due to

bless this world with a beautiful baby

girl on March 18, 2007 but they were

horrifically taken from us in a fiery car

crash. My first neice was going to be

named Sharon Elizabeth, after the

baby's fathers mother and our mother.

My sister was an extremely lovable

person who you never saw angry or

upset. She had a smile that would light

of even the darkest of rooms. Her

outgoing personality made her hard 

not to love. She was the person that no

matter what happen in your life you

could always count on her to be there

for you. She would do anything on a

dare and most things you wouldn't

even have to dare her to do. She loved

adventurous tasks. Going whitewater

rafting, skiing and camping with Ricky,

my older brother, was some of her

favorite things to do. They had a trip

for every season, no matter what the

weather they always had plans to do

something together. They weren't only

brother and sister, they were best

friends.

Christy was an amazing person. If you

met her you couldn't help yourself but

to fall in love with her. If her smile

didn't blow you away then then

personality would. She was such a

lovable person. I don't know of anyone

that she didn't get along with or anyone

who didn't like her.

Christy had many passions. She took

piano lessons for years. That song that

you're hearing now is "Fur Elise" by

Beethoven. Christy practice that song

all time. Then, I think, 3 years ago she

finally learned to play the entire song.

Everytime that she would come over to

mama and daddy's she would go to the

piano and play the beginning of the

song. I remember her practicing that

song on her keyboard and driving me

crazy because she would play it over

and over. But once she finally learned

it, she blew it away. She played the

song so well.

Christy was also attempting to finish

school to become a teacher. Attemping

I mean she went but had taken the

past 2 years off, because she said she

didn't know if that was what she really

wanted to do or not. But anyone who

knew her knew that her calling on this

earth was to be a teacher. She was so

good with kids and she loved kids so

much, even the bad ones. And the kids

loved her too. She would've made an

awesome teacher.

It's now May 2008, a little over a year since

the accident.  I always knew that my parents

were superheros but this tragedy that

completely destroyed them and they still manage to be superheros.  They are amazing people inside and out.  I can't imagine the pain and suffering they go through emotionally everyday and they still smile, laugh, and live.  I hope that just an ounce of their strength, love, and faith is in me so I can grow up to be like them.  I love my parents so much and I am so proud to call them my parents, we all are.
