Christina Lynn Harding

Christina Lynn Harding, affectionately known as Chrissy, passed away on September 18, 2026, at her home in Washington Court House, Ohio, following an extended illness. She was born on August 26, 1977, in Columbus, Ohio.

Chrissy will be remembered as a loving mother and grandmother whose care for others was reflected throughout her life. She graduated from Miami Trace High School in 1996 and later earned her LPN degree from Southern State. Her career in healthcare allowed her to serve in several local nursing facilities, including Signature Healthcare, Four Seasons, and the Monterey Care Center. Through her work, she gave her time and compassion to others in meaningful and lasting ways.

Outside of her work, Chrissy enjoyed life’s simple pleasures and creative pursuits. She loved taking rides on a motorcycle and found joy in making handcrafted gifts, including homemade bracelets and epoxy resin pieces. She was also a proud supporter of the military and veterans and contributed monthly to the Wounded Warrior Project, reflecting the generosity and conviction that were part of who she was.

Most of all, Chrissy treasured her family. She is survived by her children, Mackenzie Harding, Bradley Forsythe, and Abigail Forsythe; her sisters, Rachelle (Randy) Barker, Mary (John) Runnion, and Lisa Diffendal (Joshua Ames); her aunt, Gigi Kidwell; her cousins, Hannah Stickel and Sara Kidwell; her nieces and nephews, Hope Runnion, Faith Runnion, John Runnion, Hali Williams, Tre Thomas, Tiairra Thomas, Darrien Lee, Jalyn Lee, Jakarri Ames, and Josie Ames; and her great niece, Emma Williams.

She was preceded in death by her parents, William and Linda (Englander) Harding; her grandson, Kobe Harris; her grandmother, Mary Ruth Harding; her cousin, Micah Kidwell; her bonus dad, Roger Diffendal; her niece, Jeslynn Ames; and her nephew, Daezhar Lee.

A funeral service is planned for 12pm on Friday, September 25, 2026 at the Roberts Funeral Home in Washington Court House, Ohio. Burial will follow in the Washington Cemetery. The family will receive friends on Friday from 11am until the start of the service. In lieu of flowers, donations will graciously be accepted to help the family with Chrissy's final expenses.
