Christopher Andrea Obituary

Christopher Carr Andrea
Christopher Carr Andrea of Stamford, husband of Jamie Lamborn, passed away unexpectedly on May 28th.
Born in 1987 in Greenwich, CT, Christopher was the son of Barbara Conway Andrea and Anthony B. Andrea of Pawlet, VT, formally of New Canaan, CT; brother to Jeffrey Andrea (Michelle), and Timothy W. Andrea; and a beloved uncle to Ella, Teagan, Marin, and Lucette. He also leaves behind his precious puppy, Banksy.
After a meteoric career in digital marketing at Philips North America and Nestle Waters, Chris most recently became Director of eCommerce & Digital Media Strategy at Revlon, Inc.
Chris was a graduate of Trinity Pawling and Fairfield University. An outstanding prep and collegiate lacrosse player, he gave his talent back to his community by coaching Greenwich Youth Lacrosse and most recently as a Greenwich High School varsity lacrosse coach.
Chris had a million-dollar smile and a heart to match. One of the most thoughtful people you would ever meet, he made friends wherever he went and treated all with love and loyalty. He cherished his four nieces who were honored to be his and Jamie's flower girls at their wedding.
When Chris first met Jamie, he knew he had met his soulmate and the love of his life. They married in September 2020 in Dorset, VT, which had quickly become their special place to be together. Chris and Jamie were devoted to each other, and their love will never fade.
Chris shared a love for music, photography, and the arts. Chris' motto in life was tabula rasa - he approached everyday as a new day and encouraged us all to do the same.
A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, June 5, 2021 at 12:00 p.m. at the First Presbyterian Church, 178 Oenoke Ridge, New Canaan, CT. A walk through visitation will be held on Friday, June 4, 2021 from 4:00-7:00 p.m. at Hoyt Funeral Home, 199 Main Street, New Canaan, CT.

To Jamie & Family, This is such a shock to our family. Our son Nicolas and Chris have been best friends for many years. Chris was like a son to us. There was never a dull moment when he was around. Always happy, full of excitement and great stories to tell. Chris brought joy to everyone he was with. We have and always will have great memories of his smile, laughter and personality, which we will cherish forever.
We are truly saddened by such a sudden loss at such a young age.
Chris will always have a special place in our hearts that will never be forgotten. ( Love you Chris always & forever!!)
Our deepest condolences to Jamie and family for the loss of your loved one.
Love Always,
Nicolas DiScala & Family

Tony:

I remember how much you loved Chris. When I attended dinner at your house when I was helping with the Buick golf thing you were so generous with your time and I was tremendously impressed with your obvious devotion to your family, it was an inspiration to me and Georgia. We have six grandchildren from our four children and are extraordinarily lucky they are all healthy and growing like weeds. I cannot imagine how horrible this is for you and the family. Please know Georgia and I are thinking of you and Barb at this time. We have scheduled a mass this weekend on Christopher’s behalf. Never doubt you are loved.
