Christopher Coulon, 51, of Pewaukee, WI originally from Skokie, IL, passed away Wednesday, February 3, 2021. He was born on March 19, 1969 in Chicago. He is the loving father to Mae Coulon, son to Marilyn and the late Richard Coulon, brother to Terese Thompson (Tim) and Ann Marie Cecchin (Tony), and uncle, cousin, nephew and friend to so many. Born and raised in Skokie, Chris attended Indiana University in Bloomington, and afterwards spent many years in Chicago and Roscoe Village. He later moved to Pewaukee where he spent some of his happiest years by the water, boating and close to his daughter. Chris had a fun spirit, a charming & magnetic personality and was the "cool" uncle and friend. He lived big, had a mischievous smile, was a deep thinker and a kind & sensitive soul. He was huge Cubs fan, a lover of all things real estate and sports. Chris overcame cancer twice and many health challenges over the years, and handled it with positivity and resilience. Rarely complaining, he was an inspiration to so many, a teacher and healer as he helped others with their health obstacles. Chris connected with people at a deep level... he made them feel special, feel important... that was his gift. Chris' oncologist, Dr. Leo Gordon, meant so much to him, having spent much of his health journey with him by his side.
