Christopher Ellefson Obituary, Death Christopher Robert Ellefson, 46, a resident of Beaver Falls, passed away in a sad accident on December 13, 2022. The circumstances surrounding his death were wholly unexpected in every way. Chris Ellefson was the son of the late Robert T. Ellefson, who was born on September 4, 1976 in the city of East Liverpool in the state of Ohio. Chris’s mother, Debra Ratkovich Ellefson, had previously gone away, and Robert T. Ellefson was also deceased.
Chris’s affection for both his family and his friends was profound throughout his life. Even though he was a fan of a wide range of musical styles, the Grateful Dead was undoubtedly his favorite band. He was always ready to lend a helping hand to whoever was in need, and he possessed the talent of being able to tell jokes at precisely the appropriate time. Books and poetry were Chris’s two favorite things in the world.
He would often recite the proverb, “You will never regret the things you did; you will only regret the things you didn’t have the courage to do,” and he would mean every word of it. And Chris was courageous enough to love and live his life without much worry or concern for the consequences. Because of the profound love they had for him, his family and the friends he made throughout his life will grievously mourn him after he passes away.
Chris would remark, “What a long odd trip it’s been,” if he were there at this location. Along with his mother, he will be greatly missed by the woman who was the love of his life, Autumn Edwards; his cherished daughter, Riley J. Ellefson; his son, Ryan Ellefson; his brother, Dustin Ellefson (and his wife Laura); his sister, Katie Ellefson (and her husband Jillie); his grandmother, Ann Ratkovich; and a number of other aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. His mother will also be greatly
