Christopher Old, 33, of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, passed away unexpectedly on June 13, 2026.
Born on March 2, 1993, Chris was a devoted husband, father, son, brother, and friend. He will be remembered for his kindness, humor, selflessness, love of travel, and the genuine care he showed to everyone around him.
He is survived by his loving wife, Samantha; his daughters, Aubree and Alison; his mother, Terri Old; his grandmother, Pat Nicoll; and his siblings, Liza, Lina, Lincoln, Zach, Josh, and Regina. He was preceded in death by his father, Eddie Old; and his grandfather, George Nicoll.
Chris enjoyed traveling, exploring the outdoors, and finding joy in life’s simple moments. Whether spending time with family, sharing a laugh with friends, or discovering new places, he lived with a spirit of adventure and a generous heart. His presence brought comfort, happiness, and countless cherished memories to those who knew and loved him. He lived life, as he called it, “the Old way.”
Though his time with us was far too short, the memories he created and the love he gave will remain in our hearts forever.
If you’d like to attend the celebration of life, please contact Samantha for details.
Chris will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all whose lives he touched.
“Nunc coepi. Now I begin, again and again every time the ground shifts. Stay focused on the light. Nothing in life is permanent. Not the seasons that once felt sure. Not the quiet weights we carry. Walk on water while you can and then nunc coepi.”
