Christopher Wayne Threadgill was born in Dallas, Texas, November 26, 1956, to A.J. "Jack" and Doris Threadgill. Chris graduated from Henderson High School in 1975 and continued his education at Kilgore College. He worked for Pritchard and Abbott before returning to full-time work at his family business, Jacson Cemetery Service. Chris was a loving family man, a Christ-follower, and a loyal friend. He was a member of First Baptist Church Henderson, but he could often be found holding "church" in the back office of his shop, sharing kindness and giving advice to his employees and friends in the funeral profession. He loved his nieces and nephews dearly and was always ready for them with a joke, a Donald Duck impression, or an eye roll. He most enjoyed sitting around the dinner table laughing and telling stories. Celebrations with family and friends were so important to him. He never missed an opportunity to sit around a table with loved ones and celebrate a birthday, Thanksgiving, or Christmas. His favorite celebration was hosting the company's annual fish fry when all East Texas funeral directors came together for food and fellowship. He spent over 50 years working hard to serve others as a member of the funeral service industry. He enjoyed sharing his hobbies of hunting, racing, classic cars, and music with his family and friends. He was a proud member of the NRA, the Sons of the Republic of Texas, loved his country, and was proud of his family history. He was honored to serve on the Shiloh Cemetery board for many years as well as the Rusk County ESD board. Chris was preceded in death by his parents, A.J. "Jack" and Doris Threadgill, brother Andy Threadgill, sister Susan Threadgill, his infant son, his brother-in-law, David Marshall, and his father-in-law, Tim Lopez.
