Christopher Cieszinski Obituary

Christopher Davis Cieszinski, a cherished husband, father, grandfather, son, and brother, passed away peacefully on May 19, 2025, in Rockwall, Texas, at the age of 53. Born on March 25, 1972, in Newport Beach, California, Christopher grew up with a passion for the ocean and the great outdoors, a love he carried with him throughout his life.
Christopher's legacy is one of love, laughter, and the joy of family. He is survived by his beloved wife, Casey Cieszinski, with whom he shared a beautiful and enduring partnership. His daughters, Carly Cieszinski and Catherine Sabella, were his pride and joy, and he instilled in them the values of kindness, perseverance, and the importance of family. His grandson, Jude Hopkins, was the light of his life, and Christopher's teachings and memory will continue to guide him.
He was the cherished son of Carla Detrick and Richard and Alison Cieszinski, who provided him with a foundation of love and support. Christopher's bond with his siblings, Michael Cieszinski, Eric and Antonieta Detrick, Brian and Lisa Detrick, and Lauren Green, was unbreakable, and he was an adored uncle to his nieces and nephews, Joe, Luke, Wyatt, Cody, and Alex. His extended family and a multitude of friends will remember him as a man who always put his loved ones first.
Christopher's passions were simple yet profound. He found solace and joy in fishing, a pastime that allowed him to connect with nature and reflect on life's blessings. However, his greatest passion was his family, with whom he shared life's most precious moments. Christopher's love for his family was evident to all who knew him, and his guidance and wisdom will be deeply missed.
He was received into heaven by his paternal grandparents, Joseph "Pops" and Lois "Granny," stepfather, Roger Detrick, and maternal grandmother, Merlene Davis "WaWa, who predeceased him and whom he dearly missed.
Christopher's life was a testament to the power of love, family, and the simple pleasures of life. His infectious smile, warm embrace, and unwavering integrity will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. As we bid farewell to Christopher Davis Cieszinski, we celebrate a life well-lived, a heart well-loved, and a legacy that will continue to inspire.
