Christopher Adriel Ramirez Higinio, age 22, of Asheboro, departed this life. 

Born on August 13, 2001, in Randolph County, NC, Christopher was a proud graduate of Asheboro High School.

He embraced life with enthusiasm, finding joy in playing soccer, working out, and exploring nature through hiking. His adventurous spirit and love for dogs were hallmarks of his vibrant personality.

Christopher is survived by his mother and stepfather, Elizabeth Higinio Aguilar and Mario Sanchez; his siblings, Anthony Ramirez Higinio, Monserrat Sanchez Higinio, and Natselen Sanchez Higinio; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and a wide circle of friends who cherished him deeply. 

He will be remembered for his kindness, passion, and the light he brought into the lives of all who knew him.
