Remembering Christopher - A Life Taken Too Soon

On the night of June 1st, 2025, our hearts were shattered. Christopher, a kind, charismatic 19-year-old with his whole life ahead of him, was senselessly and violently taken from us while attending a bonfire with friends; something he has done many times before. The incident involved individuals who were not local, and had no business being there: whose presence and actions brought unimaginable devastation.

Christopher wasn’t just a “good kid”—he was the best. He was the kind of young man who would drop everything to help a friend, offer a smile to a stranger, and light up every room he walked into. Not one person who knew him had a bad word to say—because there wasn’t a bad thing about him. Whether you knew him for years or only crossed paths for a moment, he left an impact.

Now, his entire family is facing the unimaginable- the sudden, heartbreaking loss of their son, brother, and loved one. His parents, Erin, Joe, and Chris, are overwhelmed with grief, along with his siblings Brendan, Kali, Evan, Maddie, Dalton, Bane and countless extended family members who adored him. I have created this GoFundMe to help ease just a small part of their burden during this devastating.

All funds will go directly to Erin & her family to cover:

• Funeral and memorial expenses

• Supporting Erin and Joe while they take time off work to grieve and begin to heal

• And, in honor of something Christopher was so proud of—his truck—any remaining donations will help pay off his truck loan and allow the family to hold on to a piece of Christopher. We know it would mean the world to him, and will give his family one less thing to worry about.

Please give if you can, and if you can’t, please share this to keep Christopher’s light shining. Thank you for your love, your prayers, and your support during this heartbreak.
