Christina taught in Switzerland, on a Navajo reservation in Kayenta, Arizona and was teaching English in Costa Rica at the time of her death.
Christina was a businesswoman. She was a licensed real estate agent and purchased and improved many properties of her own throughout her life. Christina married twice. She moved to Grayland in 2006 where she was a supportive, active great aunt to Kurt and Kyle Bambauer and aunt to Kim Bambauer of Westport.
She immersed herself into the Grays Harbor community, volunteering at the Westport Maritime Museum and Kinnikinnick Garden Club. She was a member of the Aberdeen Baha’i Community.
Christina will be greatly missed by her older sister, Ellen Price of Fresno, her twin sister Dina Trapp of Aberdeen, as well as many other family members and friends.
