Kristofor David Kish Obituary (1980 - 2025)

With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Kristofor David Kish, a man whose life was marked by an indomitable spirit and an enduring love for his Family and Friends. Born in Bremerton, Washington on November 7, 1980, Kristofor graced the world with his presence until August 5, 2025. A lifelong resident of Kitsap County, Washington, he touched many hearts with his kindness and goodwill. Kristofor was a beacon of perseverance and strength, working as a general laborer with a commitment that was both admirable and inspiring. His work as a handyman was not merely his occupation; it was a testament to his determination and hard work. He was a man who found joy in the simplest of tasks and took pride in his craft. As Henry David Thoreau once said, "It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see." Kristofor saw beauty and potential in every task he undertook and every project he completed. "IF I'M FISHING I'M HAPPY" Fishing out on his kayak was one of Kristofor's happiest places. He also enjoyed time with his friends doing CCSA Softball Association, Disc Golf, and camping. Kristofor was also very crafty and kept busy doing many crafts for his family and friends or offering his help to them. Kristofor was a man of boundless love, and his life's journey was enriched by the love of his parents, David and Brenda Kish, who survive him. A man who was never married, Kristofor was deeply loved by his family and Friends. His life was a testament to the words of Mother Teresa, "Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love." Kristofor's love for his family, friends, his work, and his community was indeed great, and it will continue to inspire those who knew him. Kristofor was preceded in death by his grandparents: Arlene LaVier Press, Davis Kish, and Doris Kish; along with his uncle, Loren Press. He leaves behind cherished memories to his parents, David and Brenda Elaine Kish; his daughter, Madelyn; his siblings: Rachelle Elisabeth Kish, Kathleen Michelle Kish, Michael David Kish; nieces, Gypsy Kish and Laurie Rose Kish; nephew, David Michael Kish; his aunt, Marsha Press Kalawert; uncles: Steven Kish, Paul Kish, and Brian Press; and numerous friends whom he loved like family. In celebration of Kristofor's life, we invite you to share your memories and photos on his memorial page. This will not only serve as a tribute to a remarkable man but will also provide comfort and solace for those who loved him. Remember, as we honor Kristofor's life, "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart." And Kristofor, with his kind heart and loving spirit, was indeed one of those beautiful things. A memorial service will be scheduled at a later date.
