Christopher Roy Wilkes 
November 9, 1954 - December 4, 2022

Chris Wilkes left this world peacefully on Sunday morning after a nearly four-year battle with cancer, with his wife Jennifer at his side. His last days were at the Fraser Canyon hospital in Hope, BC. The family wishes to extend their thanks for the kindness and attention provided by the care staff during that difficult time.

Chris touched so many lives with his generosity, good humor, and drive to spread the joy of playing games wherever he went. Game Days, the Wizards of the Coast Game Center, the Carleton Strategy Club, the Alexander Games Club ... the list goes on and on. All those friends, and their friends and
families, will keep Chris's memory alive for many years to come.

He was many things: 
Cherished brother and son.
Loving husband.
Creator of worlds.
Imaginative designer.
Inventive game master.
A loyal and generous friend.

No formal service is planned; interment will be December 12, 2022, 11:00 AM, in the Chilliwack Cemeteries Heritage Woods green burial site. Celebrations of Chris's life will be held in the weeks to come.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the Fraser Canyon Hospice Society, the Fraser Valley Health Care Foundation, or the Cancer Research Society.

Chris my beautiful, caring and loving brother-in-law. I cannot ever thank you enough for being the great big brother you were to Bruce. You showed your love in so many ways, too many to count.

I finally realized last night that I will never see you're wonderful smile and hear your laughter that always put a smile on my face.

You may not be here on Earth but you will always be in my thoughts and heart.

We will see each other again and you can give me one of your amazing bear hugs.

Love you always,

Ginette
