Christopher “Chris” D. Meade, 53, of Frederick County, Virginia passed away Sunday, June 24, 2018, in Ellicott City, Maryland.

Chris was born in 1965 in Washington, D.C., the son of Marjorie Kirkpatrick of Sarasota, Florida and the late Richard Meade. He was a residential painter by trade, but always the automotive mechanic for his family and friends. Chris is remembered by many names…Uncle Chris to family members, Pops to his daughter, Pop Pop to his grandchildren, and Chris-py Critter to many of his friends. He enjoyed camping and fishing with his family. He spent a lot of time in his youth at the beach house on the Potomac River; always the life of the party. Chris enjoyed listening to classic rock and spending time with his grandson, Malachi. He was an avid Redskins fan. Chris was a loving son, father, grandfather, and brother who will be missed by many. Michell, his daughter, misses his daily phone calls.

Surviving with his mother is a daughter, Michell Marie Kees and husband, Thomas of Frederick, Maryland; grandchildren, Chloe Marie and Malachi Christopher Gallagher, both of Frederick, Maryland; sister, Sandy Meade of Sarasota, Florida and her son, Nick Haymaker, who is Chris’ godson; and brothers, Ricky and Steve Meade of Sarasota, Florida.

Along with his father Chris was preceded in death by a sister, Kimmy Meade.
