Christopher Pritchett Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Hanner Funeral Service on Mar. 13, 2026.
Christopher (Chris) Edward Pritchett, Born April 10, 1995, in Texarkana Tx. Chris left this earthly world, suddenly on March 6, 2026.

Chris was proceeded in death by his grandparents Mary and Walter Pritchett of Texarkana, Texas and his Stepfather Steven Moore, and father-in-law Russel Olson.

Chris leaves behind the love of his life, his wife Kayla Olson and his three wonderful sons, Leyton, Jeydon, Bentley; all of New Boston, Texas. He also left behind his devoted mother Nikki Moore of Rodessa La and his father William Chadwick (Chad) Pritchett of Texarkana, Texas, and his mother-in-law Linda Olson of New Boston. His siblings; baby sister Bergundie Pritchett and brother-in-law Andrew Wilson, Bergundie was one of his best friends, Raymond Pritchett of Ashdown, Arkansas and Hunter Pritchett of Red Water, Texas, Sister and brother- in- law Tyler and Kourtney Greggory, sister Nikki Kennedy from Blanchard, LA, brother and sister-in-law Kyle and Amanda Moore of Ashdown Arkansas. Chris loved his eight nieces and eight nephews. Chris had an abundance of cousins. Him and his cousins were raised together more as siblings. The hidden stories between them could have written books.

Chris was a genius in his own right. He could play multiple instruments, not ever knowing how to read musical notes. He would wait till the last minute to do his class assignment and still pass. He was also a chef in his own making, trying new recipes and dazzling him mom and family with different dishes. Chris was compassionate, never met a stranger and valued all the connections he made with others. Chris' favorite thing in life was raising his boys. Neighbors would tell you; he spent nearly every afternoon teaching his kids how to play football and played with all the neighbor kids too. He was a mentor to young children. Though he wasn't a member of a specific church; in childhood he attended Starting Point Ministries in Vivian, La. and Eylau Baptist Church in Liberty Eylau, Texarkana, Tx. There is no doubt that Chris loved God. Chris loved everyone, more than he loved even himself.

Chris' memorial service will be held at Liberty Ministries International in Liberty Eylau, Texarkana, Tx. March 14, 2026 at 2:00 pm. Chris will be laid to rest in Chapelwood Cemetery at a later date. He will be laid to rest with his uncle, Great Uncle, and Great Grandmother.
