CHRISTOPHER HAFF Obituary
Born 12/09/1967 in St. Louis Missouri to Dr. and Mrs. Roderick C Haff.
Chris attended Winston Churchill High School and graduated from TMI, continuing on to Southern Methodist University where he studied Economics and graduated class of 1990. At SMU he was a proud member and rush chairman of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, where he made numerous lifelong friends. A serial entrepreneur, he was passionately pursuing his avocation up until his passing.
He is predeceased by his grandfathers, Christopher William Mitchell Ling and Alexander Haff; grandmothers: Priscilla Mary Ling, Blanche Haff, Jean Ling; and uncle James Tateyama. He is survived by Catherine Holliman Cocke; son, Christopher Haff; stepsons: Marshall, Patton, and Thomas Cocke; daughter, Gabby Haff; parents, Roderick and Veronica Haff; brothers, Alexander Haff, William Haff and wife Jenni Haff; nephews and nieces: Laney, Tanner, Polly, Sam, Pete; and aunt, Alexandra Haff Tateyama. We are saddened by his loss, but we celebrate his ineffable personality, indelible spirit, and inimitable capacity to love. Puffer never met a stranger, and his uniquely ebullient demeanor means the world is lesser for his loss; he will always be missed but never forgotten.

Puffer: Your entire family welcomed our family into yours with open arms. Such fun we all had swimming, singing, feasting, hiding (Sardines), pony cart rides, football. We had many fabulous celebrations together like your Granny Ling’s 75th birthday party, St Thomas picnics at the White’s place and many more. You were always so well behaved when I babysat, and I cherished every minute at the Haff family home. You are greatly loved and will be dearly missed. We know God has a plan. We must trust in the Lord. May God continue to bless your entire family.
