Sidney - Christopher Charles O'Brien, 33, of Sidney, passed away unexpectedly in his home on June 8, 2024.
Chris was born on October 5, 1990, to Michelle (Levasseur) O'Brien. He graduated from Marshfield High School in Marshfield, Massachusetts, and went on to attend culinary school. After returning to Maine, he began a career in carpentry with his Uncle Mike. Known for his hard work, quick learning, and ruggedness on the job site, Chris earned the nickname "Brute." He made friends easily and was well-liked by everyone he met. Chris also had a deep love for animals.
Chris was an avid outdoor enthusiast with a passion for fishing, hunting, and spending time with family and friends. He cherished trips back to Massachusetts to fish with his friends, the Mikes, and enjoyed regular gatherings with friends Jess and Scott in Maine. Chris took great pride in caring for others, particularly his Mémère, Lorraine Levasseur.
Chris was predeceased by his mother, Michelle (Levasseur) O'Brien; his Pépère, Mike Levasseur; and his uncle, Willy Fortin.
He is survived by his Mémère, Lorraine Levasseur of Sidney; his brother, Cameron O'Brien of Marshfield, MA; his uncle, Mike Levasseur and his wife, Amy Levasseur of Sidney; cousins, Hunter and Michaela Levasseur of Sidney; and his godmother, Diane Bragg of Waterville.
A celebration of life and service will be held on Saturday, July 13th at 1:00pm at 44 Pond Road in Sidney.
We would like to extend a special thank you to Fire Chief Richard Jandreau and all the first responders who attended to Chris.
In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to the Humane Society Waterville Area, 100 Webb Road, Waterville, 04901.
