This memorial was created in honor of Christopher "Chris" Edward-Thomas Sniegowski

Christopher Edward-Thomas Sniegowski of 127 Shirley

St. Molalla, Ore. died Tuesday, November 10, 2015,

surrounded by his loving family, after a long, brave fight

against a genetic lung disease. He was 46.

Christopher was born September 23, 1969 in Seattle,

Wash., to Dave E. and Maria Sniegowski. He graduated

from Beaverton High School in 1988. He married Opel

Gaylene Leaton August 23, 2008.

He was a retired security officer, avid gun enthusiast,

beloved husband, father, and grandfather. Nothing was more

important to him than his family. He was a beloved man, the

foundation of his family. He will never be forgotten.

He is survived by his wife, Opel; son Justin Thomas

Sniegowski; daughters Marissa Elizabeth Luebben and

Chantell Nichole Luebben; grandson Liam Dean Franklin;

future sons-in-law Nathan Franklin and Donald Drake;

puppies Sebastian, Lilly, and Boomer


He was an amazing man. We loved him deeply. He was always willing to do anything to make us laugh.

He was an amazing Grandfather to our grandson, Liam. One of his wishes was to be a grandfather before he died. When we found out our oldest daughter was expecting, Chris was overjoyed.

Chris was a very proud father to his son, Justin Sniegowski, and daughters Marissa and Chantell Luebben. He loved nothing more than to hear about what was going on in their lives, no matter how big or small.

We will never stop missing him. His passing has left a void in our lives that will never be filled.

It has been 4 months today. Everyone tells me it will get easier, but it has not so far. I miss you all the time. I love you always.

Thanksgiving 2008, our first on together as a married couple. Remember how excited we were. We were hosting it in our new house. Everyone was coming. I remember the two of us in our kitchen together. It amazed me how much you loved to cook, and how comfortable you were in the kitchen. I took out my grandma's apron and begged you to put it on. I know you fought me for a while, but gave in just to make me happy. I love the pictures I took when you weren't expecting me to. It was an amazing day. The next day you took me into Portland to look at antique stores. It was the first of many trips out together looking for special and unique pieces to add to our collection. I miss those days so much. The early days before you got so sick. we spent so much time fixing up our yard and our house. I loved that time with you. It was so special.

Have you lost a loved one?
