Christopher O'Connor (Chris)

In loving memory of Christopher who passed away suddenly but peacefully at home on Wednesday.

 

Christopher, a cherished son of Marie and Christopher, and a beloved brother of Christine, Stephanie, and Chelsea.

 

Chris, known for his indomitable spirit, was a proud Irish Paralympian, employed with the esteemed Sport Ireland Campus (National Aquatic Centre). His presence in the sporting community was marked by resilience and determination, inspiring many.

 

He leaves behind a profound legacy of love and warmth, dearly remembered by his parents, sisters, nieces, and nephews: Corey, Macie, Riley, Kaison, Remi, and Kanri. Also mourning his loss are Christine’s partner, Marc, along with numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and a wide circle of extended family, neighbours, and friends whose lives he touched. Christopher will remain in our hearts forever.

 

Reposing at his home this Sunday the 17th and Monday the 18th between 3 pm and 6 pm. His Funeral Mass will be held at Saint Canice’s Church, Finglas Village, on Wednesday, with arrival at 10 o’clock. Following the service, he will be laid to rest at Saint Declan’s Cemetery, Ashbourne.

 

May he rest in peace, surrounded by the love and prayers of all who knew him.
