Christian Conway Price III

Christian “C.C.” Conway Price III peacefully entered eternity at home on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, at the age of 75, overcoming a long history of cardiovascular disease. Chris passed into peace and healing, reunited with his wife, Carol Ann, and many others. He is healed and dancing on two legs giving out loving advice, regardless of need.

Life of Devotion, Grit and Joy

No words will encapsulate the larger than life, loving and generous man Chris was. Chris is lovingly remembered by his daughter Angela Michele Reamy; son-in-law Larry Reamy and his cherished grandchildren; Chelsea Loring, Paige Murphey and his beloved grandsons, Bowen Loring (great grandson), Adam Grosjean, Nicholas Hill. His memories live on through his siblings, Mary Rackham, Georganna Cooper, Geff Price and Sean Price, 4 nieces and 4 nephews, his Church family, and an army of other loving friends and family.

Service and Strength

Born May 3, 1951, in Houston, TX. Chris spent his youth roaming the neighborhood on Lake Park. Surprising enough he moved in 2002 to Midlake Park, Conroe, TX; the circle of life established. He graduated from M.B. Smiley enlisting in the service shortly after. He proudly served in the U.S. Navy from September 1970 – June 1979 in San Diego, California. He served on the USS TIgrone and was involved in the early years of the U.S. Navy Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicle (DSRV) program as an underwater electrician and mechanic. His DSRV team was involved in the movie “Gray Lady Down”. Unfortunately, his actor debut was cut. His family honors his service and extends deep gratitude to all veterans for their sacrifice, valor and unshakable courage.

The Hands and Heart of a Craftsman

For 45 years, Chris’ trade was an electrician, a master of his craft who loved making things light up. Whether it was work, family or friends to the end of his life, his knowledge about electricity was sought after. Tools in hand, the news in the background, he was in his element – problem solving, restoring, inventing, creating.

He began growing flowers as a therapeutic release. His love of flowers grew into an oasis in his backyard, with a large koi pond, lovingly named Lake Carol. His love was to piddle in the yard with Carol. It gave him and Carol great pleasure to sit in the morning on the patio with coffee and in the afternoon with a toddy by the water fountain. Carol would say, “Its five o’clock somewhere.” They would talk about all their plants and flowers, and life and were both at peace. Their oasis brings great joy to all their friends and family who visit.

A Legacy of Recovery and Faith

Perhaps one of Chris’ greatest personal triumphs was the ability to live independently. He was able to enrich others and never felt he was a disabled or handicapped person as a double amputee. He felt he was a lucky man, able to do for himself and others.

In the last four years, he returned to church, with his daughter, Angela, and reestablished his relationship with Jesus. His Church Home meant a lot to him. His last Sunday, he listened to the sermon and said, “I get it.” At his last Church Home meeting he reminisced about his wife Carol. We are all grateful for his love of Jesus and know he is healed and surrounded by joy and love.

The Heart of the Wild Spirit

As a young man he was very “GQ” before it was a trend. He loved women and was an adventurer, traveling the world on the USS Tigrone submarine. He loved speed and lived through many wrecks, one being displayed at a junk yard, to discourage others from fast driving. He had no fear, the faster the better. He had many angels protecting him from harm.

A lover of books, he was an avid reader. He collected the entire series of Louis L’Amour. His last book titled “Fossil Future, Why Global Human Flourishing Requires More Oil, Coal and Natural Gas -Not Less”, is not surprising. He spent his entire career in the Oil, Gas and Coal industry. He understood what it takes to keep the lights on and the world turning.

Celebration of Life

A celebration of Chris’ life will take place Friday, October 30, 2026, at Cashner Funeral Home, 801 Teas Rd., Conroe, TX 77303 from 5:00 p.m.-7:00 p.m.
