Michael A. Christie "Mike Pete" was born on April 9, 1966 in Chicago, Illinois to Patricia A. Christie.
As a young child, the family relocated to Cincinnati, Ohio where he attended Cincinnati Public Schools. Mike had a passion for cars, trains, and bikes. One of his favorite pastimes was going to the race track with his stepfather or hanging out at the garage watching his stepfather work on the drag racing cars.
Mike was a very laid back, kind, and quiet person. He would lend a hand to help anyone he could. Some of the things that were said about Mike was that he was a great guy and wonderful to have around.
God saw that Mike was needed more in Heaven so he called him home. He will truly be missed.
He leaves to cherish his memory: his mother, Patricia A. Christie; his father, Clarence Banks; daughter, Violet T. Christie; son, Terrance V. Gibson, all of Cincinnati, Ohio; aunt, Deborah Johnson of Cincinnati, Ohio; three sisters, Michelle R. Christie, of Tampa,Florida; DeMicho R. Smith of Havre de Grace, Maryland; Monet N. Banks of Cincinnati, Ohio; three nieces, Crischelle Kinney, Charlotte Coleman of Cincinnati, Ohio, Jamila Christie of Gulfport, MS; one nephew, Casey Christie of Greensboro, NC; two great nieces, Lamari and Lamiyah Jackson of Cincinnati, OH and a host of cousins, other relatives and friends.
"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither there be anymore pain; for the former things are passed away." Revelation 21:3
