Christian was a devoted husband, father, and friend whose life was defined by faith, service, craftsmanship, and love. He entered eternal rest surrounded by the people who cherished him most.
Acts of service were Christian’s love language, and he expressed that love generously throughout his life. He felt a deep calling to bring the Eucharist to the sick, and he answered that call faithfully every time. His kindness, humility, and willingness to serve others were at the heart of who he was.
A talented and creative master craftsman, Christian had a gift for building and creating beautiful things. His work, shaped by skilled hands and an imaginative mind, will continue to endure as a testament to his talent and the care he put into everything he made. The things he crafted will last as long as the memories of him held by those who loved him.
Christian was a strong provider and a devoted protector of his family. Above all, he treasured the life he shared with his best friend and wife, Marie. They were truly two peas in a pod—partners in every sense of the word, bound by a deep friendship and a love that was evident to all who knew them.
Christian’s legacy is one of faith, devotion, creativity, and service. He will be deeply missed by his family and friends, and by all who were blessed to know him.
May he rest in God’s eternal peace.

Chris was our beautiful and talented son and brother. His loyalty and devotion to his family was an inspiration to all of us. I can’t even imagine the joy my Father and Chris felt in seeing each other again after this long. My memories and feelings for Chris run the entire gamut from giving him high speed stroller rides and singing the Bare Necessities song from Jungle Book to watching him develop his talents with wood. As much as all of us loved him the Good Lord needed him more and so he took him for Himself early. Memories and love will grow as time marches on for all of us until we meet each other again. Rest well little brother till I get to see you again. Always proud of you, Tim
They say cousins are our first friends, and that is how I will always remember Chris.
He had a mischievous smile that could brighten any room and a sense of humor that found light even on heavy days. His talents seemed infinite—effortless in the way he could do so many things well—and yet what defined him most was his fierce loyalty to family.
We will miss the quick wit, the unexpected jokes, and the way he could lift our hearts with a single grin. My first friend. My cousin. Forever in our stories, our laughter, and our hearts. You will be missed.
Even though I haven’t seen Chris in years, I always though well of him and recall his kind and fun attitude. He was a fellow classmate from way back. I am saddened to hear the news of his passing. My husband and I want to extend our sympathies to the family on his passing. We pray you will find comfort and peace in the days ahead. May he rest in peace. Sincerely, Karl and Vicky (Kowalski) Kowalewsky.
I have many happy memories from my childhood when we would travel to Rogers City in the summer or sometimes at Thanksgiving to see my Aunt Nancy, Uncle Chuck, and my cousins. Chris was funny, smart and above all, always a peacemaker, always caring for people. Such a big heart.
As we grew older, Chris developed a unique kinship with my mom. I remember when he made a surprise trip to our house, a 5 hour journey, bringing with him a special gift for her. It was one of his first wood projects, possibly his very first wood project. It was a wooden footstool, with my mom’s initials “KC” skillfully hand routered into the top surface. I knew it meant a great deal to him to give it to her, as it was the main purpose of his unannounced visit. I also know it meant a lot to my mom because that stool was placed prominently in the study with all her cherished books.
Chris’s gift to my mom was inspirational to me as well. It was a wonderful expression of creativity, crafted with his own hands, imagination and love, and selflessly given to someone he truly cared for.
It is such a shock to hear that he is gone. It’s good to know that in his time here he built a beautiful family and stayed true to the things he enjoyed. He had an amazing spirit, and I know he is deeply missed by everyone who knew him.
