MR. CHRISTOPHER GRAHAM

February 4, 1959 ~ October 18, 2026

MR. CHRISTOPHER GRAHAM, son of Milton H. Graham Sr. and Elsie E. Graham was born in Indianapolis, IN on Wednesday, February 4, 1959. At birth CHRIS gained the distinction of being the oldest of his twin sister, Christine – his jewel. CHRIS was the seventh sibling of nine and the youngest son, a position that allowed him to enjoy both the guidance of his older brothers and sisters and the companionship of those who followed. He sometimes referred to himself as “The Star Child”.

CHRIS’ humble beginnings were enriched by the love, support, and warmth of a close-knit family, providing the foundation for a rich and fulfilling childhood. Throughout his life, CHRIS extended that same kindness, and support to his friends and acquaintances. Known for his vibrant social life and independent spirit, CHRISTOPHER embraced life on his own terms unapologetically and cherished the friendships he built along the way. CHRIS held his entire family close to his heart and affirmed his faith in Jesus Christ and hope in life eternal

CHRISTOPHER received formal education from Indianapolis Public Schools #26 and #51 and attended High School at the legendary Arsenal Technical High School. Shortly thereafter, CHRIS enlisted in the United States Army Reserves. Although eager to serve, his military career was short-lived due to physical condition. CHRIS was employed by P&J Tool Company Inc. and other local companies during his years of employment. When his health permitted he enjoyed a good game of basketball and spending time with family and friends, especially around the holidays.

CHRISTOPHER GRAHAM departed this life on Sunday, October 18, 2026, preceded by his parents Milton & Elsie Graham, brothers Robert Williams, James Graham, Steve Graham and sister Frankie Lewis.

He leaves to cherish his memory: Sisters – Rosie Wilbourn, Christine Shaw, Cynthia “Kay” Jackson and brother Milton H. Graham Jr. (Estelle) as well as Betty Graham - a faithful sister-in-law, Alma Washington – his sole surviving aunt (who transitioned on 10/29/26), a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends including Geraldine Shobe a dear friend and neighbor.

CHRISTOPHER will be sorely missed by all who loved him so dearly.
