Christian Lee Orth of Shorewood, born August 21, 2001 in Torrance, CA to Chanel Borowski (nee Edwards) and Christopher Orth, passed away suddenly on May 17, 2024 after offering one final gift to the world he leaves behind in the form of organ donation.
Christian was caring and charismatic. He was the type of person that became fast friends with everyone he met. He loved to make music, cook, and play video games with his siblings. Christian was the oldest of four children, and he loved every second of being a big brother. Of course, it was no surprise to all that knew and loved him that the happiest moment of his life was becoming a father. He completely immersed himself into every aspect of fatherhood. He was attentive to her needs, respectful of her wants, and always wanted to be by her side. Now begins the most difficult task for Brittany and his remaining family and friends to attempt to fill the cavernous void that he leaves behind. Together they will work tirelessly to be sure that Lydia never wants for anything, and that she always grows up with the steadfast knowledge that her father loved her dearly. Our world will be dimmer without his smile to light our way, but we know that his power has not been diminished by his passing. He will continue to lead us on our path, until we meet him again. We love you, Christian.
Christian is survived by his fiancée Brittany Antoni and their cherished daughter Lydia Orth, his mother and stepfather Chanel and Tim Borowski, his father and stepmother Chris and Sara Orth, and his siblings Gabriel Orth, Grace Orth, and Timothy Borowski.
