Christopher Elmerick Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Treasure Coast Seawinds Funeral Home & Crematory on Oct. 1, 2025.
Christopher (Chris) Michael Elmerick passed away on August 12, 2025 while surrounded by family. Chris was born and raised in North Canton, Ohio and moved to Stuart, Florida in 1980.
Chris retired from Sikorsky as a helicopter technician and previously worked at Northrop Grumman.
Chris was a loving father, grandfather, brother, son, uncle and friend. He was an avid Ohio State and Cleveland Browns fan. He also enjoyed coaching whatever sports his children Jesse and Jamie were playing. He also loved fishing and boating. Chris was one of a kind and would give the shirt off his back for anyone. He loved to regale others with all of his stories. His family joked that he had nine lives, and he always told his doctors that he will "pull it off" when doctors wrote him off. God Bless you Chris.
