Christopher Thor Schmucker

Christopher Thor Schmucker, 32, North Webster, died July 22, 2022, in his home. Christopher was born Nov. 9, 1989, at Elkhart General Hospital.

Christopher attended North Webster Elementary, Wawasee Middle School and Wawasee High School.

Christopher loved Harry Potter and loved to read; he waited each Christmas for the latest addition of the Guinness Book of World Records. He enjoyed playing Pokeman and Magic The Gathering card games and was an avid player of all kinds of video games. He especially liked playing these games with his little brother, Erick. Christopher found all of God’s creatures interesting; he was the catcher of all kinds of bugs and was a loyal parent to many pets during his lifetime. He got a kick out of wearing shirts with funny sayings on them even though he was quiet and never had much to say. He felt best when he had a fresh Flat Top haircut. He loved ranch on almost everything he ate. As a small boy, he loved to be read to and Fetch Flops Fetch was one of his favorite books. He would sit for hours if Grandma Schmucker was reading to him about dinosaurs. He made the vitamin march a ritual every night before bed. When he was about three years old,  Christopher was given the nickname of “Beamer” by his Paw Paw Smoker. Christopher was loved by his brothers and sister, and they will hold special memories of him in their hearts forever. He will be missed deeply by his entire family who will carry him in their hearts until they meet again.

He is survived by his parents, Richard E. (Jenn) Schmucker, Pierceton and Alyssa J. Ray-Schmucker, North Webster; paternal grandmother, Kandace Mae Schmucker, North Webster; maternal grandmother, Sue Ann Mitchell, Warsaw. Also surviving is brother, Tyler (Kyla) Schmucker, North Webster and Erick Schmucker, Columbia City; sister, Abigail (Kameron) Cox, Cromwell; aunt, Amanda (Chuck) Foreman, Warsaw; uncle, Jason Ray, Elkhart; nieces, Ainsley Lynn and Pyper Jo Schmucker; and a cousin, Connor Foreman. In addition, several great aunts and uncles survive. He is preceded in death by his grandparents, Richard A. Schmucker, Joe and Linda Ray and Richard Mitchell.
