Chris Boyle Obituary

Chris N. Boyle 8/5/1956 - 4/11/2024

ORANGE, MA - Chris Boyle, beloved father and husband, passed away on April 11, 2024 at home.

Chris led a life of unwavering dedication to his family, a steadfast commitment to the land he cherished, and a love for nature's enduring beauty.

A private service will be followed by a celebration of life at a later time (date to be announced). Colin and Nancy truly appreciate all the reaching out-the love and support. Chris was truly a great man who was loved and admired by many. He stayed solid and brave to the end.

He will be remembered for his leadership, his love of the outdoors, and his unwavering loyalty.

He will be dearly missed by his family members, friends, and former colleagues at Cushing Academy, who cherished his kindness and generosity.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to the New England Forestry Foundation, 32 Foster St Littleton, MA 01460 in Chris's name.

May Chris rest in peace, forever remembered and cherished in our hearts.
