    Lonnie Christian, 88, of East Stroudsburg, passed away on Saturday, July 15, at Pocono Medical Center in East Stroudsburg. He was the husband of the late Lucy Marie Perry Christian, who passed away in 1993.

    Born on Feb. 2, 1918, in Blackey, Va., he was the son of the late Perry and Mary Blankenship Christian.
