Christopher Heay Obituary
He is survived by his Mama Michelle Heay, Dad Shawn Heay, Sissy Hayley Heay, Grandma Dori Nelson, Papa Doug Heay, and Grandma Jerene Heay. He is also survived by many other loving relatives.
Chris's life would seem too short to many, but those who knew him understood that the quality of existence and amount of fun he had far exceeds the quantity of time in which he lived. His beautiful smile could light up an entire room, and his humor could brighten anyone's day. Chris possessed a strength that resembled a warrior. He used that strength to fight for his life each and every day.
Chris's most enjoyed activities included spending as much time with friends as possible, video games, listening to music, and all sports. One sport in particular that stole his heart was football. Chris spent most of his life playing football. His abilities he possessed when it came to this game were out of this world. Chris was kind-hearted, fun, and had a wild spirit. Chris treasured his friends more than any of them know. There are too many to list, but they were all his brothers and sisters.
Before his passing he wished he could tell all of his friends to never set limitations on themselves. If you have it in your heart to try something or experience something, don't ever let fear hold you back. Go for it 100% and never taken an opportunity for granted.
We will miss our sweet boy every second of every day for the rest of our lives.
To honor Christopher, there will be a celebration of life held at Burfoot Park on May 13 at 1 p.m.
The address to this location is 6927 Boston Harbor Rd. NE, Olympia, WA 98506. Please join us to celebrate Christopher.
Arrangements under the direction of Mills & Mills Funeral Home and Memorial Park, Tumwater, WA.

As someone who knew Chris for over five years but never met in person, I feel like I've lost my own Brother.. All of the good memories we shared will stick with me for the rest of my life.
My deepest condolences to the Heay Family and friends.
