Christopher Patrick Garvey passed away on March 23, 2025. Born on June 24, 1964, in Queens, NY, to Mary Ann Reilly and Martin Thomas Garvey, he brought warmth, kindness, and laughter to everyone he met throughout his life. Chris spent his elementary years in Los Angeles, where his love for the L.A. Dodgers and Rams took root—a passion that stayed with him always. Known for his friendliness, he never met a stranger, greeting the world with a smile, a joke, and an open heart. His compassion touched countless lives, earning him the love and admiration of everyone fortunate enough to know him. An avid golfer and bowler, Chris found joy on both the fairways and lanes, where his laughter and good company made every round unforgettable. The foundation of his Christian faith was laid by his loving parents. Chris was christened in Flushing, NY, at St. Andrew Avellino Roman Catholic Church in 1964 and confirmed at Saint John Vianney Parish in Walnut Creek, CA, in 1977. Later in life, his spiritual journey continued into the Apostolic-Pentecostal church, being baptized by immersion in the name of Jesus at Roseville Christian Fellowship in Roseville, CA, in 1995, and baptized in the Holy Spirit at Apostolic Tabernacle
