It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Christopher Loren Aldrich on Nov. 15, 2024. He was born on April 3, 1992, to Rae and John Aldrich in St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin. Chris was a graduate of Luck High School in 2010 and was employed by Steffl Drilling and Pump in Wilmar, Minnesota.
Chris was a kind soul with an infectious sense of humor that touched the lives of everyone who knew him. His laughter and playful spirit made him a joy to be around.
A lover of the outdoors, Chris found peace in nature. He cherished long walks in the open air and found joy in boating and fishing with family. His love for the outdoors was matched only by his passion for the Minnesota Vikings and Iowa Hawkeyes football. His enthusiasm for these teams brought him closer to family and friends while sharing the highs and lows of every season.
Chris will be remembered for the love and kindness he showed to those who were fortunate to know him.
Christopher is survived by his parents, Rae (Dale) Perszyk and John (Diane) Aldrich; sister, Andrea (Tyler) Pilz; brother, Matthew Aldrich (AlexAnn); nieces, nephews, step-sisters, step-brothers, aunts, uncles, cousins and many dear friends.
A private Celebration of Life will be held in his honor at a future date. In lieu of flowers, the family encourages donations to mental health organizations or suicide prevention to help others struggling with similar challenges. Even in death Chris continued to help others and was a donor to LifeSource. His donation was able to provide multiple families with hope and healing for a better, healthier life.
Chris will always be loved, never forgotten and forever missed.
