Christopher Javon Prigg

Family and friends will come together to celebrate the life and homecoming of Christopher Javon Prigg. He was born in Topeka, Kansas on March 23rd, 1991 to Christie Denise Prigg and Derrick Lamar Roberts.

Christopher accepted the Lord as his Savior at an early age. He enjoyed singing in the church choir at Pilgrim Baptist Church and attending his fellowship Bible study class on Sunday mornings. He had a very loving and giving heart. We will always remember that about Chris. He enjoyed working puzzles, cooking and watching movies. He attended Coronado High School before moving to Reno, Nevada. There he graduated from McQueen High School in 2008. His life dream was to go to culinary school to become a chef. Blessed with a gift of love for people he never met a stranger, everyone in the neighborhood knew Chris. We will continue to love him and carry his spirit within us.

He is survived by his mother, Christie Prigg; and brother, Jordan of Reno, Nevada; Grandparents, Rosie and Ronnie Prigg of Lubbock, Texas; two aunts, Sherri Franklin of Abilene, Texas and Rhonda Greenzweig of Arlington, Texas; one uncle, Michael Greenzweig also of Arlington, Texas; three great aunts, Flessie Davis of Lubbock, Texas, Evelyn Hicks of Chicago, Illinois and Gloria Gaines of Houston, Texas; one great uncle, Lee Hicks of Lubbock, Texas; a step great-grandmother, Pearl Hicks of Houston, Texas. A special mention of a very dear family to Christopher, the Watt’s family.

Chris was preceded in death by his great-granddaddy, Leroy Hicks.
