Christopher David Chewning, a vibrant soul and beloved son, brother, and friend, passed away on October 27, 2026, from injuries sustained in an automobile accident. Born on July 12, 1996, in Philadelphia, PA, Christopher's life was a tapestry of joy, resilience, and love that touched all who had the privilege of knowing him. Christopher was the cherished son of David Chewning and Kathleen McFall (Hasson). He was deeply loved by his brother Craig Chewning, and his stepsiblings Erin, Amy, and Fiona. His beautiful soulmate, Emma-Jean Maura, was his constant companion and greatest joy. While his passing leaves a profound void, Christopher's spirit lives on, carried forward by the memories shared with his family and friends. Christopher's journey took him to Limerick, N. Ireland, where he graduated from Saint Anne's in 2014. He embraced his new home with warmth and enthusiasm, quickly becoming an integral part of the community. His career as a stone mason, which began in 2017, was not just a job but a craft he honed with dedication and pride. Christopher's work was a reflection of his character—strong, enduring, and crafted with care.

Known for his infectious smile and the laughter that could light up any room, Christopher possessed an extraordinary ability to uplift those around him. His presence was a beacon of positivity, a gift he shared freely with everyone he encountered. Christopher was predeceased by his grandfathers, Peter Chewning and John Hasson, and his grandmother, Kathleen Hasson. Their memories were treasures he carried close to his heart, guiding him throughout his life.
