Christopher Andrew Pittman, 44, of Palmer Twp., left his wheelchair and ran to Heaven to be with the Lord on October 30, 2020. He was surrounded by his loving family at his residence. He was born in Easton on October 4, 1976 to Ronald A. and Lathedia “Kaye” (Trogler) Pittman with whom he resided. Chris served as Pennsylvania State Poster Child for the Muscular Dystrophy Association in 1986 and 1989. Chris was a graduate of Easton Area High School, class of 1995, where he was a member of the National Honor Society, Peer Assistance Group and an enthusiastic Red Rover fan. Chris was a member of St. Andrew’s Evangelical Lutheran Church, Palmer Twp. where he received First Holy Communion and was confirmed. He attended Moravian College in Bethlehem, cheering the Greyhounds from the sidelines on Saturday afternoons with his dad. He graduated in 2002 with a Bachelor of Science Degree. He started his own online screen printing business after graduation. A lover of sports, he was an avid football fan. The Fighting Irish of Notre Dame held a place in his heart, but the Pittsburgh Steelers were his passion. He never missed an opportunity to watch a game, and was able to see the Steelers play twice in person. Once at Three Rivers Stadium and once at Heinz Field. Chris enjoyed attending music concerts when he was able. His love of Hootie and the Blowfish and Train led to wonderful friendships. Above all else, Chris cherished his family and friends.
