A Tribute,

celebrating Christine


Christine Francescone’s tree now stands outside Courtyard West Orange as a living reflection of the grace, strength, and kindness she brought to every day. Thanks to the generosity of The Shauger Group, who donated their time to plant a weeping cherry tree in her honor, and the reflection bench selected by the hotel team, this space will become a quiet place to remember the compassion, leadership, and joy she shared so naturally. Christine’s path with NHG began as a Director of Sales and grew into a beloved General Manager, known for her faith, her warmth, and the way she carried others through both the laughter and the hard moments with equal heart.
