Christine C. Gresh's Obituary
Christine C. Gresh, 75, passed away on October 25th, 2022 after a year long fight with ovarian cancer.
She was born on May 9th, 1947 to the late Dale and Felicia (nee Lacinski) Farson in Cleveland, Ohio.
Christine married Richard Gresh on May 4th, 1965. They have been married for 57 years. Richard will miss her dearly.
She had many hobbies that included baking, gardening, and shopping. Christine really valued her time with her family.
As her children were growing up, she taught them how to cook and bake with recipes and techniques she learned herself from her mother and grandmother. During the holidays, they made cookies and candies together.
Christine took pride in her yard and flower beds. She could often be seen tending to her rose bushes scattered throughout their yard.
She loved to shop and be out and about. Her children would often call their father and ask where mom was, he always had the same answer, “She’s out shopping.” When she had some relaxing down time, Christine would knit and sew.
Christine enjoyed volunteering as a Red Coat at Playhouse Square. She did that for three years.
She is survived by her loving husband Richard Gresh; children Carolyn (Mark) Scherry, Wendy (Chris) Pettry, and Richard (Stephanie) Gresh; siblings Sandra Labbe, and Linda (Ray) Baumbick; grandchildren Jessica (Justin) Lelesch, Mikayla (James) Morell, Tyler Scherry, Jarod Pettry, Cameron Pettry, Brooke Pettry, and Luca Gresh; and great- grandchild Sam.
VISITATION will be held on WEDNESDAY, November 2nd, from 3pm - 7pm at JARDINE FUNERAL HOME, 15822 Pearl Road, Strongsville. The FUNERAL SERVICE will follow beginning at 7pm.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance, PO Box 3214, New York, NY 10087-2141.
