He was a lifelong resident of Marion County and worked as an auto body repair technician. In addition to repairing cars, Chris enjoyed the outdoors, walking through the woods and finding sticks that he could whittle into walking sticks and canes. He deeply loved his children and family and will be remembered for always having a smile on his face and the endless joking around that brought laughter to so many people.

Chris is survived by his wife, Latasha Robbins; a daughter, Jessica Briggs (T.J.); a son Austin Robbins; his mother, Mavis Summers; his father, Kenneth Robbins; a sister, Teresa Magee (Darrel); a grandson, Gavin Briggs; and a niece, Kristyn Robbins.
