Christopher John Weiss Obituary

We bid farewell to Christopher John Weiss of Syracuse, New York, whose journey of life gracefully concluded on January 19, 2026 at the age of 63. Christopher touched countless lives with warmth and kindness, leaving behind cherished memories that will forever echo in hearts. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.

He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, Volker Weiss and Peg Weiss (Hake); his wife Susan Sanford Weiss; his sons, Coburn Swem and Matthew Ternosky (Karen); his brother Erick (Courtney Mancini); his nieces, Alice and Margaret; and his pet Hawkeye.

During Covid, he and these friends worked to create a small set of recordings of Christopher's original songs, accessible on Spotify and elsewhere. (Search "Christopher Weiss and the Whiskey Hippies.").
