R.I.P Christopher "Chip" Lamkin

In remembrance of 

Christopher Wayne Lamkin (Chip)

Born: 07-04-1985

Died: 02-11-2025

Christopher "Chip" to those who knew him passed away in the early morning of the 11th in his sleep. He went peacefully after enjoying an evening with family and close friends. He was a husband to Sarah Parrott(Lamkin) for 9 years; with his wife he had two daughters Jennifer (woo-woo) and Evelyn (sissy) he was also father to Hannah, Kenton, and Kimberly whom we lost tragically last June. He loved his family and you were lucky to have been called his friend or brother. 

Whether you ended up loving him or hating him you never forgot Chip, he had an amazing way of making everyone he had met feel something how you felt was up to you. He was a talented artist Chip could paint, draw, sew and design he loved to create whether it was with ink on paper or skin. 

He was incredibly intelligent and could explain things in a way that made you listen because you wanted too. He had an infectious laugh and a wicked sense of humor which he put on display whenever you needed cheering up. He had many degrees and certificates which he proudly displayed in his workshop and in our home. He loved to teach and expand someone's mind and lead them down a path of discovery, he was always there to listen and strived to be available to those who needed him.

 He had many demons but he battled them bravely and fiercely to the very end, he rarely backed down and always stood up to a Challenge. Christopher was passionate about his church and his folk, he could resight bible verses from heart and could open your eyes to Yahweh even if you closed them. He was adventurous and a true free spirit travelling all over the country never settling down in one place for too long. He was charismatic and charming he could sell anything to anyone if he put his mind to it, he rarely took No for an answer.

The passing of Christopher was a tragedy, but I am looking to create something positive from it. I will starting the "Chip Lamkin Memorial Fund" where a percentage of each sale or donation will be saved and given to those affected by loss or tragedy.

**Please allow time for my family to grieve our loss and to take the next steps to move forward** 

Sales will resume along with shipping in the next few weeks.

Yahweh Bless
