Christine Mayyou Ooi (nee Seetho) was born in Butterworth, Malaysia on September 12, 1948. In 1954 she moved with her family to Penang, Malaysia, an island famous as a resort with pristine, beautiful tropical beaches. She was the youngest of seven children born to See Toh Hong and Madam Kung Ah Hoy. She completed her high school education (Grade 13) in Malaysia and went onto the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. In 1971, she emigrated to Canada where she completed her B.Sc. Degree at the University of Toronto in 1974. She then completed her education degree at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg in 1975. Then while teaching full-time, she enrolled on a parttime summer program for five summers at the University of British Columbia and obtained her masters degree in education in 1990. Christine has served as a teacher for more than 30 years. She taught in Manitoba, British Columbia and Saskatchewan (LaRonge, Yorkton, Saltcoats, Ebenezer, Rhein, Bredenbury and Shoal Lake).

She retired from teaching in July 2003 and enjoyed travelling, reading, writing, painting, music, gardening and growing flowers. At one point, Christine had over 50 rose bushes, 100 varieties of lilies, 24 peony bushes in her front and backyard. She derived tremendous pleasure from the sight of her flowers blooming galore. She said their beauty and smell is a touch of Heaven on earth. She’ll always remember the wonderful smell of jasmine, Queen of the Night, frangipanis, lilac and tropical roses. She’ll always remember the joy of running wild under the big frangipani tree, picking the frangipanis that dropped to the ground. Or the glory of her Rose of China and Thunderchild crabapple in majestic bloom…. Christine loved travelling. She had been all over Canada and the United States and visited many countries overseas, including Japan, Hawaii, Alaska, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, India, Costa Rica, Malaysia and Indonesia. It was her desire to visit as many of the world’s natural and ancient wonders as she can.

She participated in many charitable works such as Mother Teresa’s Missionaries of Charity, Covenant House, World Vision, Children’s Christian Fund, the Canadian, American and Malaysian Red Cross, as well as the RBC My Daily Bread programs. Christine met and married Richard Ooi in Toronto in 1977 and were blessed with two sons, Vincent Paul and Riley Michael.
