Christopher M. Dulinski

1967 - 2021

Christopher M. Dulinski age 53, died suddenly at his home in Manistee, on Friday, February 19, 2021.

Born on July 2, 1967 to Carol (Londry) and J. Thomas Dulinski in Manistee. Chris trained with his father as a plumber from an early age and probably had a pipe wrench instead of a rattle. Chris was a graduate of Manistee High School with the class of 1985. He loved music, especially Aerosmith, and he enjoyed going to concerts with his friends. He had many jobs over the years, as a plumber, mechanic, handyman, and even a cook. Chris was the kind of person that would help anyone that needed it, he would give his last dollar if it would make a difference.

He is survived by his wife Lisa Harris Dulinski, his daughter Sabre Dulinski of Manistee, Stepdaughter Brittany (Aubrey) Hall of Sicklerville, NJ, son Kellie Strandberg of Fairbanks, AK, grandchildren Milaya, Klarysa, Darian and Bradlee Dulinski all of Manistee and Luna Hall of Sicklerville, NJ. Also survived by his Aunt Arlene Jankowski, Uncle Tommy Breece, godmother Priscilla Staffeld, several cousins and an abundance of friends that he considered family.

Chris was predeceased by his parents and sons Stephen Strandberg and Brandon Dulinski.

Over the years he lived in many places including Cadillac, Detroit and New Jersey before returning home to Manistee in 2015. Chris was an avid outdoorsman and enjoyed hunting, camping gardening, tending to his chickens, backyard fires, barbecuing and his dog Rock. In keeping with Chris' wishes there will not be services, but he did want "a party, and there better be whiskey!" Celebration of Chris' life will be held on July 3, 2021 in the backyard of our home. All are welcome.

The Herbert Funeral Home of Manistee is in charge of funeral arrangements.
