Christopher Ayers

Christopher "2 Oaks" Lee Ayers, a cherished son, brother, uncle, and friend, passed away on February 8, 2024, in Battle Creek, Michigan. 2 Oaks was born July 9, 1971, in Hastings, Michigan, the son of Otis "Sam" and Carol (Park) Ayers.
2 Oaks attended Thornapple Kellogg High School. After high school, he served his country in the United States Army. Upon returning to civilian life, 2 Oaks found his calling as a truck driver for Maverick Transportation.
2 Oaks's zest for life was evident in his many interests and hobbies. He was an avid member of the Avengers Motorcycle Club for 24 years, where he found brotherhood and joy in the rumble of engines and the wind on his face. His love for his Harley motorcycle was more than a pastime; it was a central part of his identity.
2 Oaks also enjoyed shooting pool. His love for the outdoors was expressed through fishing and hunting. Golfing was another of 2 Oaks's pleasures, a game that challenged him and offered opportunities for laughter and camaraderie on the greens.
2 Oaks was preceded in death by his father, Otis "Sam" Ayers, his grandparents, Maynard and Ardyth Park, Coy and Nell Ayers, and his aunts, Pam (Doug) Cook and Joyce (Howard) Cooper. His legacy and memory are carried forward by his loving mother, Carol Ayers; his sister, Amanda Ayers; his niece and nephew, Emerson and Paisley Schmidt; his Aunt Judy (Jerry) Jackiewicz; his cousin, Patrick Stamm; and the many cousins and brothers at the Avengers Motorcycle Club who will miss him dearly.
A graveside service with military honors at Ft. Custer National Cemetery is being planned. Arrangements by Girrbach Funeral Home. For updates or to leave an online condolence visit www.girrbachfuneralhome.net.
