Bartlesville, OK - With family by her side, Christina Rene (Mahlo) Nash, 41, died on January 12, 2022, at OU Medical Center in Oklahoma City. She will be remembered as a dedicated mother who loved her children almost as much as the Kansas City Chiefs.
The daughter of Phil and Susie (Moffitt) Mahlo, 'Chrissy' was born in Bartlesville, Oklahoma on February 12, 1980.
After graduating high school, she briefly moved a couple times before returning to Bartlesville to raise her family.
Chrissy's children, Tyler (23) and Carinna Marling (20) and Cierra (18) and Caden Carr (16), were her greatest accomplishments. She raised the four of them as a single mother, something the kids admit must have taken a special level of strength and patience.
She worked at Walmart for the past 15 years, where she was a respected employee who could always be counted on for a good laugh.
Chrissy worked extraordinarily hard to give her children the best lives they could have. Even if it meant sometimes taking on 70-hour work weeks. Even if it meant working a second job during the holidays just so her kids could have a good Christmas.
She gave out her fair share of tough love as well. She made the kids get jobs when they turned 16 to learn responsibility. When Tyler swore for the first time, Chrissy washed his mouth out with soap. "I can still taste it," Tyler said. And all in good fun, she loved directing jokes at her children, too.
Besides her children, Chrissy's other love in life were the Chiefs. Her dog's name was Chief. In her living room was a China cabinet full of memorabilia, even including Patrick Mahomes cereal and Chiefs soda that were deemed untouchable. For the Super Bowl in 2020, she drove to Kansas City and waited outside a bar at 4 a.m. even though it didn't open for another 6 hours. All worth it to witness her first Super Bowl win.
Chrissy's favorite name to be called was Gigi. Tyler and his fiancé, Amber Smith, gave his mom her only grandchild, Carter (3). She spoiled that kid rotten. Every moment Carter spent with his Gigi was memorable, from all the Chiefs gear to all the cuddles on the couch. Carter loved his Gigi more than anyone and he will forever know the love she had for him.
Along with her children and grandson, Chrissy also leaves behind her sisters Melanie McVey (Golden, CO) and Heather Spencer (Bartlesville, OK) and her brother Andy Mahlo (Bartlesville, OK).
Her children will always love their mother, a strong, independent, and beautiful woman inside and out.
The family will hold a celebration of life at East Cross United Methodist Church in Bartlesville on Saturday, February 5th at 5 p.m. Attendees are asked to wear Chiefs gear or colors.
