Christopher “Chris” Kevin Seal

Christopher “Chris” Kevin Seal, age 44, Tuscumbia, passed away March 3 while doing something he loved, riding motorcycles.

Chris was a cherished son, a loving father to his girls and a devoted Auburn fan. He was a big-hearted man, always willing to help others. He was extremely clever when it came to mechanical devices and had the uncanny ability to take things apart and put them back together … most of the time. He had an incredible sense of humor and wit and had the ability to make you laugh even when you were mad at him. He was truly “the life of the party” and will be missed by all.

The visitation was 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. March 6 at Spry Memorial Chapel, with the funeral following at 1 p.m. in the chapel. Officiating was Bro. Bobby James. Burial was at Shoals Memorial Gardens.

Chris was preceded in death by his younger brother, Gregory Seal; and grandparents, Taskel and Myrtle Bailey and Nelson & Zelma Seal.

He leaves to cherish his memory his daughters, Morgan and Chloe Seal; mother, Kathy Seal; father, Wade Seal and wife Betty; brother, Barry Seal and wife, Jada; step-sisters, Dawn Rickard and LeAnn Murray; many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews; and girlfriend, Rebecca Krott.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the family or to Spry Memorial Chapel to aid with funeral expenses.
