Christopher White, Sr. Obituary

Born on November 15, 1989, Chris was a man defined by strength, generosity, and an unwavering love for his family.

Chris was truly one of the good ones. He was the kind of man who would give you the shirt off his back without hesitation. He was always willing to help, whether it was family, friends, or a complete stranger. Selfless by nature, Chris showed up for the people he loved and for those who simply needed a hand. His heart was big, and his loyalty ran deep.

Above all, Chris was a phenomenal father. His greatest pride and joy were his two children, Christopher Louis White Jr. and Olivia Grace White. He loved them fiercely and completely. Being their dad wasn’t just something he did, it was who he was. His love for them was evident in everything he worked for and every sacrifice he made.

Chris grew up with a deep love for heavy equipment, tractors, and the smell of fresh dirt. From a young age, he wanted to be just like his father and grandfather, who owned a heavy equipment company. At just 18 years old, he began his career as a heavy equipment operator, proudly continuing the family legacy. Over the years, he built not only an impressive skill set but lifelong friendships along the way. He was respected for his strong work ethic and for being exceptionally good at what he did. He took pride in his craft and in providing for his family.

Outside of work, Chris had a passion for building and customizing Mobile Suit Gundam model figures. What started as a hobby grew into something bigger, as he built a strong online following of people who enjoyed watching him create. He was patient, detailed, and incredibly talented turning small pieces into something impressive.

He is preceded in death by his mother Gail Leota White Baker. He leaves behind his beloved wife, Jazmine White; his children, Christopher Louis White Jr. and Olivia Grace White; his father, Louis White Jr.; his brothers Donald Ingram and Alexander White; his sister, Leslie White; extended family; and many friends who will forever carry his memory in their hearts.

He built a life defined by love, hard work, and generosity and that is how he will always be remembered.
