He was a Veteran of the United States Air Force and was employed by Avon and most recently at GE Money. Chris was known for his laid-back, respectful personality, until it came to sports. From Little League Baseball, Football and Basketball he became a little competitive. This was apparent, especially in the ability to always perform to his very best, with modesty. As a graduate of Ross High School, he will always be respected for his drive in contributing with his teammates, to put Ross Sports on the map as a future threat, while never disrespecting his competition. Chris was an avid Bengals and Reds fan who always believed in rooting for the home team. He never forgot his roots making the best of every situation. Bottom line.. Chris, was a likeable and stand-up guy. His legacy will live on through his family, especially his son Caden, who was Chris's Heart and a true image of himself. He always strived to be respected in every angle of life and demonstrated passion and commitment to "be your best". Chris you are respected and will be deeply missed by all who knew you. Chris leaves behind his wife, Heather (Burton) Coolidge; his son and "Star", Caden; mother, Karen Tussey; father, Christopher Coolidge, Sr.; Jeremy (Tricia) Coolidge and Dustin Tussey; and many other family and friends.

Heather & Caden,
Very sorry to hear of the lost of Chris. Was shocked. You don't know me but I used to own "Ross Sports Cards" back when Chris was in high school. When he went on to Marrietta for school he left me with all his spots cards and I have been trying to locate him since. I would like to give them to you and Caden. You can reach me at [email protected]. Again very sorry to hear of his passing he was a very good person in many ways.
