Christine Alice Harris, affectionally known as Chris, was born on October 18, 1949 in Mansfield, Ohio. She was the fourth child of David and Classie Harris. She departed this life on June 5, 2022.
Chris graduated from Mansfield Senior High School and later continued her education at The Ohio State University. She worked for 28 years at The Ohio State University and retired from there in 2014.
Chris was known for her vibrant and fun loving nature. When Chris walked into a room, she lit it up. She loved to laugh and have a good time. She loved her family and was a loyal friend. She always kept up with the young ones in the family as they reached various milestones in their lives. Christine was a huge fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers, The Ohio State Buckeyes, and professional tennis. She loved to travel, especially to tropical locations with beautiful beaches, watch game shows and do crossword puzzles. Her favorite pastime was playing bid whist with her family and friends, and she was an exceptional player. Another favorite activity was working out number schemes to play the lottery which she did until she was no longer able to do so.
Chris was preceded in death by her parents, David and Classie Harris; sisters, Alene Harris and Jennifer Harris; brother, Eugene Harris; and brother-in-law, Wilford Wiley.
Chris is survived by sisters, Beulah Wiley of Columbus, OH, Jacqueline Crawford of Highland, CA, Patricia Harris of Mansfield, OH, and Norma (Mark) Tolson of Upper Marlboro, MD; brother, Jonathan Harris of Mansfield, OH; two aunts, Martha Davis and Bridget Donaldson; nieces and nephews, Dalanda (Mark) Yonley, Simone Robinson, Clarence Harris, Jada (Junji) Tanaka, Chantal Harris, Merrill (Jaysherrie) Tufts, Sr., Andre (Shannon) Harris, and Tosha Phelps; and a host of other family members and friends.
