Life story
Obituary of Christopher Watson
On Monday, June 5th 2023, in his 39th year, Christopher (known to many as Andrew) died tragically and unexpectedly at his parent’s home in Shawville, Quebec. Christopher leaves behind his beloved children Jude, Kingston and Thalia, his parents Leonard and Cathy, his sister Maria and his niece and nephew Bella and Luca. He will be missed by many dear friends and his large extended Watson and Dunbar Families.
Christopher was a truck driver for over 20 years working for many companies that took him to places all over Canada, but he always called North Bay home. When home, he loved spending time with his children and could find him most nights shooting hoops or playing board games. Christopher was an excellent carpenter, even building his dream home in North Bay. Christopher’s family is thankful for the outpouring of love and community support. There will be no public wake or funeral. A private graveside service will be held at a later date.
For those that knew Christopher, you knew that he loved to laugh and smile. When he loved he loved big! In lieu of flowers or donations, the family asks that you take this time to reach out to someone and pass on a selfless good deed and show the love and joy that Chris did.
