William Christopher Wheeler, 39, of Grayson, passed from this life on Monday, April 8, 2024, at his home.

He was born January 3, 1985 in Monroe, LA, to the union of his parents, Marilyn Nelson Sharp and Danny Wilbur Sharp.

Chris was funny and smart, and he loved to play jokes on his family and friends. While he loved building things; he also enjoyed taking things apart and putting them back together. He was an avid fan of the New Orleans Saints. He loved duck calls and anything Drake made in camouflage. Aside from his children and family his biggest love was his dog, a yellow lab named Drake. Chris will be missed greatly and always loved.
