Christopher Lawson passed away in Windsor, Ontario. The obituary was featured in The Windsor Star on August 5, 2011.
Today I read, for the first time, all the notes of condolence which are on this site. I am one of Christopher's aunts and viewing all these makes me feel that part of Chris is still with us. Thank you.

“Hey dude” was his signature expression when addressing himself to someone…I met Chris in Windsor in 1993 as I was doing my MFA. We quickly bonded and remained friends over the years. We hangout in San Francisco in 1999 and as usual with Chris, spending time together was always a joy. We last spoke in 2008 just before the wedding and once again after he came back from Paris. He was obviously happy and filled with love for Kai. I am sorry I never got to meet you Kai, please accept my deepest...

I will always remember Chris as a very kind and generous person with a great sense of humour, as well as very talented artist. He was also one of our best student volunteers and Artcite Board members...My deepest condolences to his family and wife.

I am very sorry to hear of Chris' passing and send my deepest condolences to his family. I met Chris through the U of Windsor BFA program and at Artcite while he was on their board of directors. I remember him for his sincerity and as an extremely intriguing artist. I'm very sorry for your loss.

I had the privilege of knowing and making art with Chris at the University of Windsor. He will always be remembered as a kind and gentle soul; a keen and astute artist; a man possessing a sharp intellect and a surprising sense of humour. He will be greatly missed.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
