Though born in Charleston, South Carolina, on August 15, 1980, he was a lifelong resident of Virginia. Christopher graduated from Chancellor High School in 1998. He was a lifelong Boy Scout, receiving an Eagle Scout rank from Troop 179. He received a bachelor degree in History with a minor in Parks and Recreational Management from Virginia Tech, in 2002. He became a Marine Reservist while in college and had served in the Marines for six years. Shortly before his orders to Iraq were received, he had been employed by Bechtel Nevada in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Christopher was a quiet, intelligent young man with a profound love of history, hiking, camping, bicycling, and skiing. He will be remembered above all for his kindness and devotion to family and friends, and for what he felt was his duty to give back to society and his country.
He is survived by his parents, David D. and Sharon Kay Weaver of Spotsylvania; a sister, Carly Marie Weaver of Cambridge, Massachusetts, and his fianc‚e, Danell Weaver of MacLean, Virginia. He is also survived by his fraternal grandparents, Richard Lee and Ellamae Weaver of Kerrville, Texas; aunts and uncles: Calvin and Renee Self of Corpus Christi, Texas, Edward and Christa Self of Plano, Texas, Nancy and Ken Condry of Katy, Texas, Pamela and Charlie Holloman of Westminster, Colorado, Barbara and Allan Ferrin of Bainbridge Island, Washington, Richard D. and Marilyn Weaver of Chula Vista, California, and Terri and Mike Adams of Chula Vista, California. Also surviving him are numerous cousins; his maternal grandparents, Haskell and Florine Self, and his fraternal grandmother, Betty Jean Weaver, preceded him in death.
