Christina Ann Rowland, 53, passed away peacefully at her home in Huffman, TX after a two year battle with cancer. She was born on September 22, 1960, in Toledo, Ohio to Walter and Dorothy Bellamy, who both preceded her in death.

She was a 1977 graduate from Waite High School in Toledo. She drove a school bus for Toledo public schools where she made many friends.

Chris had many loves in her life and one of those was shopping! Whether it was clothes or just things for her home, she truly enjoyed a bargain! She also enjoyed riding motorcycles and being with her family.

She was preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Ralph, Richard, Walt and Stephen Bellamy. Christina is survived by her loving husband of 36 years, Raymond C. Rowland; children, Donald Rowland of Summerville, SC, Stephen Rowland (Cearrah) of Memphis, TN, Sam Rowland of Huffman, TX; grandchildren, Raylen, Kayleigh, Skyler, Kora, Braxton and Shyann; sisters, Rosemary Price (Robert) of Devil's Lake, MI, Gloria Bellamy of Toledo, OH; brother, Leonard Pod of Michigan; numerous other relatives and a host of loving friends.
