Christopher (Chris) Sewell born February 3rd, 1988 in Victoria, B.C., passed away unexpectedly on August 24th, 2018. He was predeceased by his mother, Lea-Anne Sewell (2016) and will be lovingly remembered by the many friends he made in life.
Chris was an undergraduate student in Mathematics at Simon Fraser University, as well as a Master Bombardier for the Canadian Armed Forces. Having grown up in and out of foster care, Chris had a more challenging start at life than most. However, his perseverance and eagerness to take on new challenges lead him to enjoy life at its fullest; achieving the Dean’s honour roll at SFU, excelling at his job with the Canadian Forces, and always making friends by helping out those in need. His hobbies outside of work and school included playing the guitar and piano, reading the latest unsolved problems in mathematics, going on adventures with friends, and playing video games.
Those who knew Chris are invited to attend a funeral service at the Bessborough Amoury, 2025 11th Ave, in Vancouver on September 15th, 2018 at 2pm, reception to follow.
