Obituary of Christopher Stephan De Leon

Christopher Stephan De Leon was born November 1, 1978 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He moved from Chicago to Fort Worth, TX prior to the start of high school, but called both cities home. He graduated from Nolan Catholic High School and earned his degree from The University of Texas at Arlington, although an ardent and loyal fan of Texas A&M. His career began at the Bass Hall in college, working his way up from the Box Office to the Director of Information Technology. His kindness, optimism, and quick-wittedness brought joy and laughter to those around him. An avid sports fan, he enthusiastically rooted for the Texas A&M Aggies, the Dallas Cowboys, the Dallas Stars, the Texas Rangers, and the Chicago White Sox. He loved to travel to Mexico or across the United States, and frequented games at various baseball stadiums. He is survived by his parents, Dr. Frank and Catherine De Leon, brother, Patrick De Leon, and sisters, Sara De Leon (Josh Riley) and Dr. Emily De Leon (Jeff Bieda), his nephew and niece, Kylan and Kynli Riley, his paternal grandmother, Frances Madonna, and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
