Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.

Christine (Berry) Lopolito passed into God’s hands on December 12th 2021.

Heaven’s gates have opened and trumpeted the arrival of one of earth’s angels.

Christine was a shining beacon of pure love. The strength of her spirit, and the intense love that radiated from her heart will always be felt by all who knew her.

If God were to choose an example of the type of person that best represents the love born in the kingdom of heaven, it would be Christine.

Christine loved Christmas. She was the Christmas spirit in human form. Always kind, courteous, compassionate, giving and forgiving.

If you were in Christine’s company, you would be smiling or laughing about something.

Christine loved nature; the mountains, rivers and valleys. She loved all of God’s creatures, the large and the small.

She loved watching the full moon rise over the ocean and the sun rise and set over the Grand Canyon. She loved a star filled night by the firepit in the company of family and friends.

Christine was amazing on so many levels. She was a master of creativity. If you gave her a rock, a small cup of soil and a vile of water she would find a way to create your own personal planet.

There is a no way to fully explain the many ways Christine will be missed in our lives. Heaven is now brighter by her presence, while we struggle to cope with the darkness left behind. Soon that burst of light from heaven will warm our hearts once again as the countless memories of time shared with her fill our spirit.

Arrangements are by Thomas S. Lowther Funeral Home & Crematory, Vero Beach.

Stephen, that was so beautifully written. Chris will be missed by so many who were lucky enough to have known her. Although we haven’t seen each other in a long time, I will be forever grateful that we reconnected through Facebook. Chris had the most positive outlook on life. She lived life to the fullest. She was always doing beautiful crafts, working in her yard, playing with her grandchildren, redecorating her home. She had an abundance of talent. Her family meant everything to her. She loved them with all of her heart. She enjoyed all the time she had with them. Chris always put everyone first. She had the biggest heart. She was always laughing & enjoying life. I will truly miss my beautiful cousin a lot. May she Rest In Peace with no more pain & suffering. Heaven has gained such a beautiful angel. Chris you will be missed by so many of us who just love you so much. Our most sincere sympathies to all of Chris’s family & friends. Sending love & healing prayers to you all. Much love,Linda, George & family. ❤️❤️

Chris …..the words spoken of you are spot on. I will cherish every childhood memory we have together from the boils at the lakehouse to the street fight ( long story) as teenagers. Many fond memories of your smile & laugh. You could light up a room !!! You will be sadly missed here on this planet. Give Cathy & Grandma McDonald a big hug for me. Love you my dear cousin. ♥️.

Until we meet again Auntie. Our loss is Heavens gain. Saying goodbye is too permanent I know we will see you again. You’re with the King now, and renewed and restored, there is no more pain or sorrow. I am honored to be your niece. Though distance kept us apart physically, the love within this family can’t be snuffed out with such small things. What is this distance when eternity awaits. See you later auntie. Love you soooo much.

Heaven definitely gained an Angel with Christine. My deepest sympathy to her family and friends. She was my favorite co-worker at Publix. I have memories of her I’ll never forget. She was a constant joy with a contagious laugh and she will be missed greatly. Such a beautiful human with such a loving, happy heart & soul.

Chris will be missed by all who knew her, her free spirit ,sweetness, humor, and countless other beautiful qualities will be sadly missed !! Most important to her was her family. She was a beautiful wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend and more! I have great memories with her that I will cherish forever ! Especially music, Chris taught me I could sing , even though I really can’t sing well, to this day I still sing out loud everyday to all my favorites and hers!! We are also birthday sisters , born the same day . Never missed our birthdays! God speed my old friend ! Love and miss you !

I love you so much nana, I never ever thought this day would come. I have no words. You were such an amazing grandma, and person overall. You have made such an amazing impact on my life. You always have your own spot in my heart. It’s going to be so hard without you. I already miss you so much. It’s crazy I will never hear your voice again. I remember you bathing me for my first time with my cast off like it was yesterday. Or when I was crawling, or every cake you’ve baked for my birthday, or how you made every single Christmas (or every other holiday) so special. This Christmas will be so hard without you. You have made my memories 100% more better. Thank you for everything. I love you forever and always nana. ❤️

When you look at pictures of Chris you always see one thing, her beautiful big smile. She was always smiling because she was truly happy. She loved life, she loved Stephen, and her kids, grandkids, and her family. She will be greatly missed. I will miss seeing all her creations and projects she posted on Facebook. She had so much creative talents and endless energy. Rest easy Chris. ❤️Terry

I agree with our sister Julie beautifully written Steven..I remember serving in children’s ministry and some scripture shared with the children..”Man judges man by his outward appearance where as God judges man by his heart..Chris and Steven are a wonderful example of what Love looks like..Unconditional love..described as Agape Love…(Godly Love) I am so encouraged knowing Chris is no longer in pain..In heaven We get a new body .a spiritual body..Chris is now wrapped in the love that she emitted times a billion..She is part of the kingdom that just got brighter..She is home..probably on the decorating committee..up there..I think family and friends would agree because of Chris our lives were better..And are better..May We live the remainder of our lives Loving like Chris..! My prayers and condolences for all .

Dearest friends and relatives, I am writing toward the end of these condolences and everything has already been said by all of you so I will not repeat those notes except that Mike said how God judges us by our hearts. Heaven truly is a brighter place tonight and maybe there is a nice gathering around the campfire and Chris made some wicked good treats for everyone. So pass around the marshmellos, Stephen, get your guitar and I will get mine and we can sing for Chris in this dream of Heaven by the campfire in this beautiful, loving place. ❤

Of all of our friends moms, you were always the nicest and most inviting. You will be missed! Now you can visit the mountains any time you want, I know how much you loved it there. Prayers to the family. I’m so sorry for your precious loss…

Cheryl Strickland - Daughter

Mommy, You were truly an angel on earth. Ageless and pure. Stunningly beautiful and full of life. You carried no hate or I’ll will towards anyone, and we’re always so forgiving to all. You saw the best in some of the worst times and always laughed and smiled through it all so gracefully. You will always be with me. I’ve felt your presence since you left your earthly body and joined the other angels. You’ve taught me so many lessons in life and you’ll forever be my guidance as our family continues our journey. I know you are in heaven rearranging the clouds and painting more rainbows for us all to see. I’ll live by your words and cherish our memories forever.I couldn’t have asked for a better mom. You truly set the bar beautiful! Thank you for everything. Until we meet again Harriet. See ya later alligator. Love Always, Mrs. Fletcha❤️

The sadness of Chris passing is rewritten with the memories of happiness she shrouded us all in. To recall moments with Chris allows us to smile and remember a wonderful and joyous person that radiated and laughed endlessly, no matter the circumstances. To the family Chris leaves behind, there are no words to reduce the hurt that you feel. However, feel the comfort that Chris is at peace.
