Christopher Dale Robertson, better known as Chris Robertson, of Rochester, Washington, passed away on July 10, 2024.
Born on June 1, 1960, in Centralia, Washington, Chris lived a life full of dedication, talent and wit. His supportive nature and love for his family were the cornerstones of his existence. Chris was a devoted husband to Jami Robertson for 43 years and a doting father to Nicholas (Amanda) Robertson, of Chehalis, Washington, and Catrina (Eric) Holmkvist, of Tumwater, Washington. His joy was multiplied by his five cherished grandchildren: Gwenivere (Gwen), Ezekiel (Zeke), Quinten, David and Nora. Chris was one of nine siblings and was preceded in death by his parents, Robert and Catherine Robertson, and five of his siblings.
Known for his quiet demeanor and generous heart, Chris was a talented handyman and took pride in teaching his grandchildren through various building projects. His hobbies included woodworking and watching sports, but what mattered the most to Chris was watching his grandchildren excel in their activities.
