Christopher Ristow

Hi, my name is nicole, yesterday I had the most upsetting phone call , my nephew with a heart of gold is no longer with us. This was unexpected and he is survived by his two wonderful boys. They are not even old enough to comprehend what is happening. For all who know Chris he was a light, he loved with his whole heart and you could feel that within a smile of his. He loved helping anyone, all animals and his family very much. He would take in and care for just about any soul who needed him cat or human. He was a hands on father who was daily co parenting with the mother of his children. That’s why I am making this page to ask for people to donate what they can, I know times are ruff for us all so anything is gladly appreciated, it will go to cover his services as he didn’t have life insurance. The rest of the funds with go to the boys education and care. Chris was a force. He was born and raised California, and he had a ruff go off it, but he pushed himself through with the help of friends and family, he was strong and becoming a father was his purpose as that’s his legacy , a few years ago he moved to Oregon and in his words “became a man here” he was a wildlife firefighter here in Oregon. He was so proud of that accomplishment, and we loved having him, his kiddos needed him back home and he movies back ,

he lived there raising his kiddos with their mother. Not even thirty, but truly an old soul. We are all lost, but we need to be there for each other and help this family however we can. Thank you for your condolences and your help. Bless you

Services have not been decided yet as family is taken a few days to process and then they will discuss what Chris wishes are and what we can do.
