Christopher Ray Vardy

Boyd ~ Christopher Ray Vardy, a loving husband & dad, who was like family to so many, passed away at the age of 49, Thursday, February 11, 2021 in Ft.Worth, Texas.

Memorial Service (live streamed due to Covid at: fumcfw.org/live) is 11:00 a.m. Saturday, February 27, 2021 at the First United Methodist Church in Ft.Worth. Casey Langley will officiate.

Chris was born September 25, 1971 to James and Mary Lou (Earl) Vardy in Lubbock, Texas. He and Tamara Neff met at Texas Tech University and began their love for life and for each other and were married on June 18, 1994. The two did everything together from volunteering in the Youth Group, to watching Tech events, to their favorite activity…supporting their boys in every way imaginable. Chris graduated from Frenship High School and received his Bachelor of Business Degree from Texas Tech. Chris was Contract Administrator for the F-16 project at InterConnect Wiring. He was a long-time member and volunteer of the First United Methodist Church of Ft.Worth. Chris had a smile that could warm your heart, a presence that would make everyone feel welcome, and a laugh that was simply contagious.

He was preceded in death by his sister whom he considered his baby, Leslea Underwood.
