  Christine Marie Muff, the daughter of Benjamin and Clara (Pospisil) Muff, was born Oct. 17, 1953 at Crete, Neb.  At the age of two, she moved with her family to a farm north of Ventura.  She spent time with her family until becoming a resident of Opportunity Village in 1999.

She enjoyed dogs and watching movies, especially Maverick, Lassie and John Wayne movies.  Christine was a true blessing to the lives of her family.  She taught her family and all that were close to her what life is all about, and that is love.  Christine touched many lives at Opportunity Village and will be remembered by many, especially her special friend, Jane Trampel.

  Christine is survived by her father, Ben Muff, of Garner; brother, Dan (June) Muff, of Garner; two sisters, Deb (Stub) Cash, of Clear Lake and Denice (Jeff) Austin, of Clear Lake; and several nieces and nephews.

  She was preceded in death by her mother, Clara, Sept. 12, 2008.
