Christopher Hugh Wallace

November 12, 1972 — August 23, 2024


On November 12th 1972 at 6:20pm, Christopher Hugh Wallace was born to Jennifer and John Wallace in Montgomery County in the State of Maryland. He was a beautiful green eyed baby and weighed 6lbs 8oz. His father John, was a Capitol City policeman, and his mother Jennifer worked as a nanny and then worked at Children's Hospital. Chris was a very active child and loved to roller skate, and ride bikes and he also delivered newspapers and was Boy Scout. 

 

His family loved to spend summers in England, where his mothers family was from in Liverpool, the home of the Beatles. After high school, Chris worked as a dock worker in Ocean City Maryland. Later he became a local Club DJ but in 1993, he suffered a severe spinal injury which changed his life forever. As he recovered, he was able to work again in the lighting industry, but he lost his father in an accident. After his marriage ended, he went back home to live with his mother who needed his care after health issues. Once his mother suffered a severe stroke, Chris decided he could no longer care for her properly and she was sent to a nursing home. This broke his heart because she was the person he adored the most and he decided to leave for California in 2010. There he met his partner, Diana, and he lived with her and their snow-white kitty Bunny Rose and they became a happy family together. He was able to do community work with Diana, and traveled to New Orleans and climbed the pyramids of the Yucatan jungle, what he called “a life changing experience.” He suffered a tragic heart attack at home on August 22 and died past midnight on August 23rd 2024. His loss is felt by many because he was a charismatic and charming friend to so many people. He had a sunny disposition and loved to help others, especially older people or his neighbors. He will be missed by all who knew him and throughout his pain and losses, Christopher managed to smile everyday and tell his family he loved them. We will miss his beautiful soul every day and may he rest in eternal peace with love from all who knew him.
