Christina was a beloved coworker known for her quick wit, smile, warmth, care, and love for her UAB Blazers and high school sports.
“She was on of the sweetest, most loving people that I know. She was relentless with running, loving her son, and loving life. I am glad I got a chance to hug and tell her I love her a week ago at the Super 7. I am so sorry for her family, the Chambers and Thompson Families, and her WBRC Family.”
