We celebrate the beautiful life of Christine Ellen Vest, 67, a loving wife, a nurturing mother, a caring sister, compassionate aunt and loyal friend. Christine was called home to be with Jesus after a heart attack in the early morning of April 29, 2019, at 1 a.m.

Please join her family for the Vigil/Rosary prayers Sunday, May 5, at 7 p.m. The Mass of Christian Burial will be on Monday, May 6, at 11 a.m. Services will be held at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Sand-point, Idaho, with Father Dennis C. Day officiating.

Christine was born on September 19, 1951, in Long Beach, California, the daughter of Jack and Janice Anderson.

We never really lose someone when we know where they are going. Christine greeted everyone she met with a big smile, a story to share and a contagious laugh that filled any room with a mighty and generous love. With grateful hearts we celebrate the life she so joyously shared with us; her family and the church community she served for 17 years. We will feel her love and embrace her example throughout our lives and see her loving influence impact all future generations.

She is survived by husband, William Sr., and their five children, William, Scott, Joshua, Sarah, Ethan and their families.

Family and friends are invited to sign Christine’s online guestbook at coffeltfuneral.com

Arrangements have been entrusted to the care of Coffelt Funeral Service of Sandpoint
