IN LOVING MEMORY OF CHRISTOPHER ALLEN SOBKOWICZ

June 12, 1953 – December 23, 2024


It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Christopher Allen Sobkowicz, beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. Chris passed away after a courageous battle with cancer, demonstrating his characteristic determination, humility, and warrior spirit throughout. Chris is lovingly remembered by his wife, Sherry Sobkowicz (née Cote), with whom he shared a lifetime of love and partnership. Together, they raised two sons, Jaret (Kim) and Jordan (Kristin), who brought immense pride and joy to his life. Chris adored his six grandchildren, Sadie, Finn, Smith, Emily, Anna, and Julie, whose laughter and love brought light to his days.
