DEAGLE, Christine Elizabeth

On this day, May 18, 2009, our little angel Christine, peacefully passed from the loving arms of her family, into the open arms of God and her eternal family. Our family was blessed with her presence on August 8, 1990. We were entrusted with a rare gift and for 19 years, helped God raise an angel. She was baptized Christine Elizabeth, Christine meaning "anointed one, follower of Christ". Born with a congenital birth defect, Christine was challenged with many health issues all through her young life. Our former parish priest, Father Alex MacLellan once referred to her as "a warrior in the battle of life", and rightfully so. Christine's ongoing surgeries and long hospital stays were adversities faced with courage and bravery. She had a deep faith and a true understanding for God and his great love for her. She was a very humble child, and didn't like to be in the spotlight or be fussed over. She was a caring and compassionate spirit who worried about those she loved and always thought of others and never of herself. When asked how she was feeling today, her answer was always the same..."Dood". Living with chronic pain was a cross she carried willingly without complaint or resentment. She taught all who knew her that you can accomplish anything you want, despite your challenges. Christine loved all music. She attended every concert that appealed to her, having the distinct pleasure of meeting various performers and entertainers. She had a special love for the horses, and delighted in sharing a 'win' with her Dad and her uncles Raymond and Kevin. Cheering for her Maple Leafs was ongoing and her loyalty to her team was strong. This was especially evident after she and her family won the Family Breakaway contest enabling them to attend a Leaf's practice, a hockey game and meet the entire team and especially her star player, Mats Sundin. Christine found great comfort in watching her favorite television shows, downloading music and listening to her cousins play guitar for her and sing. Her greatest passion was reading and each trip to Chapters was an adventure. She was a Grade 12 student at Inverness Education Center Academy, and although she wasn't actively attending, she was to graduate in June with her peers. In 2004, Christine was chosen Champion Child and represented all the sick children from the IWK and across the Maritimes. She wore this honor with great pride and accepted her medal of bravery and courage on their behalf. Up until Christine's passing, she was working on her autobiography. This was made possible to her by the Children's Wish Foundation and a wish she had requested. She wanted to share 'her story' with the hope of inspiring other chronically ill children and their families. Christine is survived by her loving and dedicated parents, Walter and Gena (Walker) Deagle. Her Dad was her best friend, and was always "right beside her". Christine never let him forget that she was his "little responsibility". Her mother was her devoted caregiver and as Christine would say, "knew her like a book". She will be missed by her older sister, Rachel (Garett Beaton), and her eldest sister, Erica (John Begin), both of Inverness. She was very proud to be Auntie to Riley and Sophie. In the last months Christine became close to her puppy "SueBee", who was a loyal and true friend to her. Also surviving is her maternal grandmother, Jean Walker, (Nanny Walker), Inverary Manor; her aunts, Sandra (Bernie) MacDonnell, Kim (Glen) Poirier; uncles, Junior and Christian Walker; uncles, Lawrence (Patricia), Raymond (Patricia), Kevin (Angela), Campbell (Monique), James (Annette) Deagle and aunts, Clare Gracewood (Mike), Tina Larson (Karl), Cathy Gammon (Percy), Janice Aucoin (Paul), Sandra Cripps (Doug) and many many cousins! Christine was predeceased by her maternal grandfather, Alexander "boy blue" Walker, and her paternal grandparents, John R. and Mary (Nanny Peggy) Deagle and cousin, Andrew Deagle. Visitation will be in Inverness Funeral Home today, from 7-9 p.m. and Thursday from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. Funeral mass will be held on Friday at 11 a.m. from Stella Maris Church, Inverness, with Father Duncan MacIsaac officiating. Burial to follow in the parish cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Central Inverness Palliative Care Society. Christine would feel it appropriate to acknowledge and thank all the doctors and nurses in Halifax and Inverness especially her very good friends, Dr. Bernie MacLean and Mary Anderson (Inverness Hospital-Strathlorne-extended care) and Dr. Lorne Leahy of the IWK.
