Obituary of Cristina Mary Cameron

CAMERON, Cristina Mary, April 21, 1973 … February 5, 2009. It is with great sadness that our family announces the sudden death of Cristina Cameron. Only 35, Cristina was the adored wife of Darcy Day, beloved daughter of Owen Cameron and Betty Cameron (Ferguson), much-loved sister and best friend of Lynne Kelly (Cameron), cherished friend and sister in-law to Travis Kelly and dearest aunt of Ethan and Reese who affectionately called her “Tee Tee”. Having travelled and lived all over the world, Cristina was known for her love of life, her sense of adventure and her determination to live life to the fullest. She loved immersing herself in new cultures and her open heart and loving nature earned her friends wherever she went. She loved the outdoors and was famous for lounging by the pool or beach on hot sunny days with a cool drink and a good book. A fantastic cook and baker, she enjoyed being in the kitchen and showed her love and nurturing side by fixing snacks and meals for everyone and serving them with a smile. Her sense of humour was infectious and she was always ready with a quip or funny story. Cristina attended Acadia University and then continued to the University of Windsor to obtain her B.Ed. An inspirational teacher, her love of learning and children was evident each day. At the time of her passing, she taught fourth grade at the American International school in Costa Rica and was deeply loved and appreciated by both staff and students. She was predeceased by grandparents Gerald and Mabel Ferguson and Alec and Mabel Cameron; she will be lovingly remembered by many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. Our world is a little darker now with her light extinguished, and she will be sadly missed by all whose lives she touched. Arrangements are under the care and direction of J. Albert Walker Funeral Home (2005) Ltd., 149 Herring Cove Road, Spryfield (477-5601), where visitation will be held on Friday, February 13 from 2-4 and 6-8 PM.
