So saddened to hear the news of Christine’s passing. As so many have said before me Christine was always guaranteed to get a job done and didn’t hang about.

Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Christine. She had a great spirit and was very kind to me when I worked alongside her at RTE Cork. My sincere condolences to her family and friends at this very difficult time.

I was so sorry to hear of Christine's untimely death. I worked with Christine in RTÉ for many years across so many programmes. Her beautiful Scottish accent was a voice you heard on talk back and knew you were in safe hands. That lovely chuckle when we went to the canteen for egg and chips on a Friday when she'd be working in Sport will be sorely missed. She was so proud to tell us about Robert and her grandson Ollie. RIP Christine, Nicki

To Christines family ,

I had the pleasure of working in the imperial hotel , where Christine was based with her work a lot . What a lady . We absolutely loved her , always kind, interesting and that laugh! I am here, with tears rolling down my face that I will not get to speak to her again, but so grateful that I had the opportunity to meet such a cool, considerate & kind woman. My heart is broken for you . I hope you find strength in the times to come by knowing she had such a positive impact on so many people . Hope the tea is good & strong where you are xxx

I’m so sorry to hear of the sad passing of Christine, I met her when I was a hotel Manager and she would stay with us 3 nights a week while working in Cork.

Sincerest sympathies to you, Robert on the death of your Mom, Christine. We worked together on many programme strands - and whether I was presenting of directing, Christine always brought her trademark efficiency and razor-sharp Scottish wit wherever she went. She was a great character and addition to any production crew. Suaimhneas síoraí di.

My sympathies to you on the death of Christine. I worked with Christine from afar. I was in TG4 & she was onsite with GAA Beo, so despite only meeting once, we had a chat regularly over talkback & on the phone on match days. We always had a laugh when we talked & she will be greatly missed by all of us who had the pleasure to work with her. May she Rest in Peace.

Christine thank you for been a friend not a guest to all of us here at the Imperial hotel Cork
You have a place in our hearts for ever
Rest in peace xxx

Rob, I'm so so sorry to hear this news. Christine will be missed dearly by everyone. Thinking of you, Stacey and Ollie at this time.

Our thoughts are with Rob, Stacey and Ollie along with Ian and Morag. So very sad. We knew Christine over twenty years from the early days when we came to Kilkenny and shared so much history together particularly around our children. Her passing will leave such a gap. She was such fun and a great story teller and loved nothing more than a robust conversation about politics both in Ireland and the UK. So many times we had great laughs about life. She was also generous with her time and loved to encourage young people to reach their potential. Above everything she was so proud of Rob and her greatest recent delight was to spend time with her gorgeous grandson Ollie. He really lit up her world. She will be missed by so many of us. A great friend. May she rest in peace.

Robbie I was so sorry to hear of your mum's passing. She was such a lovely lady. Our thoughts are with you at this time.

My sincere condolences to Robert and extended family on the sudden death of Roberts’s beloved Mam, Christine. Christine lit up every room or OB Unit when she entered with her infectious good humour, not to mention that great Scottish accent. Her professionalism and organisation always ensured that programmes went without a hitch which added to the enjoyment of everyone involved. Rest in Peace Christine.

I was very sorry to hear the sad passing of Christine. We worked together on many TG4 OB’s over the last 10 years. From day one she was always friendly, helpful and happy to share her vast experience. I was always happy to see her name on a crew list as it meant you were in a safe pair of hands. She will be greatly missed but you can guarantee where ever she is, she has a big smile on her face and is chatting to those around her.

Sincere sympathy to Robbie and all the family.

Sincere sympathy to Robert and all Christines family at this very sad time.
May she rest in peace.

I am incredibly sorry to hear of Christine's passing. I took a TY journalism course that she taught alongside Paul Cuddihy at Kilkenny College and will never forgot not only her humour and generosity but how she took teenagers seriously and treated us like adults - we were in on the joke, encouraged and trusted all at the same time. My deepest condolences to Robert and all of her family, she will be greatly missed.

Sincere condolences to Robbie and family at this sad time. I always enjoyed Christine's company especially when it came to discussing current affairs. May she rest in peace.

Sad, shocked and saddened to hear of Christine's sudden death. I worked with Christine over many years in RTE. She was so obliging, ask her to do a job of work and it was completed with the utmost speed and accuracy, Christine didn't believe in hanging around! Her infectious laugh, all round good humour and chat enlivened many a dull day in RTE. Sympathy to Robert, her extended family and friends.

Our love to Robert, Stacy and Ollie, losing a mum and a granny is heartbreaking. Christine was a big sister to me and Morag and a super auntie to Catriona & Iain, and Andrew, as well as all the children of the next generation. Never missed a birthday and always there with help. In fact, when I was 7 and coming back from school, I got involved in an altercation with 3 other boys and was coming off worst. Christine was passing, a few swift swings of her schoolbag and the 3 boys were in the wind. Having rescued me and checked I was alright, we headed home, where she promptly reported me to mum for fighting! We all loved her and will all miss her very much.

Christine , you were always very kind to me in school

Robbie I am so sorry for the loss of your mum

I was so sad to hear of Christine's passing. We worked together for best part of twenty years on GAA BEO...a consummate professional and someone who would always make you smile and see the sunny side of life. She will be missed greatly. Suaimhneas síoraí go raibh aici sna flaithis.

On behalf of all at RTE Cork we are deeply shocked to hear of Christine's passing . She was a much valued colleague and friend and will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Rest n Peace

Deepest sympathy to you Robert & your family your mother was a real lady.

Many happy memories of working on RTÉ Cork/TVM with lovely Christine’s humour and great work ethic. She knew how to get scripts out of us! We had the best of chats on all those programmes. God, she had such a great laugh! Condolences, Robert, how proud she was to be your Mum, & she said so often. Slán, le mo chara dílis, Christine.

I was very sad to hear about Christine and would like to express my deepest sympathy to you on her passing. I worked with her on many OB's over the years and her bright eyes and warm smile was always infectious. Tá mé cinnte go bhfuil sí san áit ina mbíonn sé ina shamhradh i gcónaí. Sólás síoraí dá anam uasal.
