AUBURN – Christine L. Diffin, 66, of Poland passed on the evening of Wednesday, April 10, 2024, surrounded by loved ones. Christine was one of nine children born to Wilfred and Ruth (Carlson) Friberg on August 14, 1957, in Woburn, Mass.

Christine graduated from Casco Bay College with an associate’s degree in Accounting. In 2007 she opened her own accounting business; Bookkeeping Plus & Associates LLC located in Gray. Christine was a loving mother to her four children and was a wonderful grandmother. She enjoyed every moment with her grandchildren; having sleepovers, watching them play sports, attending plays and concerts, and she would never decline a game of Uno.

Christine found joy in knitting, gardening, bird watching, family gatherings and cookouts, ocean trips with her mother and daughter, and camping with her family at Papoose Pond. She enjoyed many years with her devoted partner Wayne Coffin and their cat Allie, who both brightened her days.

She leaves behind her children Eric Diffin and wife Jillian, Dan Diffin and wife Meghan, Amanda Diffin, and Mathew Diffin and wife Stephanie. She left the world with six amazing grandchildren, Wilder, Parker, Ella, Chase, Oliver, and Brantley. She is also survived by seven of her siblings.

She was predeceased by her parents, Wilfred and Ruth Friberg; and sister Nancy Friberg.
