Christopher E. Bates
Passed on November 27, 2021
Resident of Sudbury, MA
Christopher Evan Bates, 37, of Sudbury, MA passed away suddenly on Saturday, November 27, 2021, at his home.
Born in 1984, in Cambridge, MA, Chris grew up in Sudbury, attended Lincoln Sudbury Regional High School and soon after relocated to Arizona before moving to Los Angeles and finally settling in Worcester, MA. He loved working around food, most recently as Kitchen Manager for local restaurant where he was well-liked and respected by both his employer and co-workers.
Chris leaves behind his mother Janet M. Meaney of Boston, his father Norman D. Bates of Mashpee, brothers Daniel Bates and his wife Arianne of New York, sister Emily Bates Cartmell of New Jersey and David Carter and his wife Ana of Austin, TX. He also leaves behind several loving aunts, uncles, cousins, many friends and his two rescue dogs, Snoops and Rosie.
Chris took immense pride in being a rescue parent and was not shy in discussing how much his dogs helped in his darkest moments. He never faltered in his love, pride and care for his dogs or his passion for adoption. His tenderness towards them is evidence of the deep well he had within him for unending love and passion.
The family plans to host a private gathering of family and close friends to celebrate and honor his life on Saturday, May 21, 2022, at his father’s home in Mashpee, MA.
