Christopher Ethan Tu

Chris was a beloved son, family member, friend, and student whose kindness, humor, and gentle spirit touched many lives. Though his time with us was far too short, the impact he made on those who knew him will remain forever.

He grew up in La Canada and graduated from La Canada High School in 2023. Chris then decided to pursue his college education at George Mason University in Fairfax, VA. Although he had not declared a pathway, he was drawn to a profession dedicated to helping others and making a difference in people's lives and was considering a career in nursing. His desire to care for those in need reflected the compassion and empathy that were so much a part of who he was.

Those who knew Chris will remember his smile, his silly sense of humor, his loyalty as a friend, and the kindness he showed to others. While we grieve the loss of his presence, we give thanks for the gift of his life and the memories we will carry with us always.

He will be deeply missed and forever loved. We trust that Christopher is now at peace in the presence of the Lord, free from pain and embraced by God's eternal love.

Christopher is survived by his dad and mom, Michael and Serena, and his big brother, Jeremy.
