and sisters. She is survived by her husband, Clinton Dudley;

Christine grew up at Christopher Creek near Payson, Ariz., and
married Clinton Dudley on Aug. 8, 1959. She moved to Kingman in 1966
and remained in Kingman, making it her home. She was a loving
homemaker who raised her children.
Christine then at the age of 50 went to work at the Kingman School
District as a teacher’s assistant until she retired at age 65.
Christine loved working with the children and staff where she met
many of her dear friends. In her younger years she loved to bowl and
belonged to several bowling leagues in Kingman.
She loved her family and was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother,
and friend. She was a Christian and loved the Lord and she was
always positive, happy, and very cheerful. Christine was a joy to be
around, always making us laugh with her sweet spirit. She will be
missed dearly.
