Christine Hamann

Christine Hamann, 57, passed away on September 16, 2025, in Bentonville, Arkansas. Born on July 28, 1968, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Christine lived a life marked by deep faith, vibrant personality, and unwavering devotion to her family.

A proud graduate of Lincoln High School's Class of 1986, Christine had a passion for learning that continued throughout her life. She pursued multiple college degrees, including one in medical coding—an achievement that reflected both her intellectual curiosity and her remarkable organizational skills.

Christine was known for her bright and bubbly spirit. She was often the biggest personality in any room she entered—radiating warmth, humor, and an infectious energy that drew people to her. Her love knew no bounds, especially when it came to her family and animals. She absolutely adored her three children—Nicholas Galloway, Robert Galloway, and Brittany Galloway—and shared a special bond with her brother Kegan Parkinson, whom she lovingly cared for as his guardian.

Her deep Christian faith was a guiding force throughout her life. Raised Lutheran, Christine remained devoted to God and Jesus Christ. She prayed often and found strength and purpose through her spiritual beliefs. Her faith was not only personal but also evident in the way she treated others—with compassion, kindness, and grace.

Christine had a playful side that shone through in her love of video games. She especially enjoyed playing Mario and delighted in sharing this joy with her children and extended family. Her home was always filled with laughter during game nights—a testament to the close-knit bonds she nurtured with those around her.

An animal lover at heart, Christine had a particular fondness for cats. Her compassion extended to all creatures great and small; she found joy in caring for them and often opened her heart—and home—to animals in need.

Christine is lovingly remembered by her mother Jane Lahey; children Nicholas Galloway, Robert Galloway, and Brittany Galloway; sisters Laura Parkinson and Jody Parkinson; brother Kegan Parkinson; and partner David Gabrey. Each of them carries forward the legacy of love she so generously gave.

May Christine's memory bring comfort to those who knew her and continue to inspire lives filled with love, faith, and joyful connection. A Celebration of Life will be held on November 15, 2025, from 05:00 PM to 08:00 PM at VFW Norton, Massachusetts 38 Summer St. https://evite.me/rvw6Y6xsQ2
