He was born May 13, 1966, to the late Water “Danny” Cardwell and Judy (Barrow) Cardwell in Edwards Airforce Base, CA; spending the majority of his life in Pensacola, FL.

He is survived by his wife of 30 years, Teresa (Coggin) Cardwell; his daughter, Brittany (Cardwell) Cummings; his son-in-law, Caleb Cummings; his granddaughter, Emelia Cummings; his mother, Judy (Barrow) Cardwell; and his brothers, Kevin and Brandon Cardwell.

He was a graduate of Tate High School Class of 1984. Growing up, he was a member of First Baptist Church of Cottage Hill in Cantonment, and then a member of King’s Way Church in Pensacola as an adult. He was an avid reader and talented artist, often seen drawing and creating wood-working projects. A barber by trade, Chris loved every single one of his clients and his craft.
