Christopher Ryan Workman

He was born on December 12, 1989 to Sarah and (late) Reginald Workman.

Chris was so loved by his family and his daughter, Ella Mae.

Chris was a graduate of Ballard High School and Galen Nursing School.

Nothing brought him more joy than the day he became a father with Jenniffer Blanton, to Ella Mae. He loved her more than anything. Chris and Jenniffer’s love for each other can be seen in Ella Mae. He was smart, very tender-hearted, and had an exceptional sense of humor. So witty and sarcastic.

Chris was so very loved by his family. He was especially close to his sister, Caitlyn Workman. They shared an unbreakable bond. He adored and loved teasing his younger brothers, Taylor and Nick. He even enjoyed teasing into adulthood.

Chris leaves behind so many friends and family that he touched and will miss him dearly.

His parents, Sarah and Steve Lombardi, are devastated and will keep his fond memory forever.

He was a son, brother, father, and meant everything to us.

The family asks that you please share a story of Chris with them. They are making a journal for his daughter, Ella Mae.
