Christian Cannon
Christian A. Cannon, 24, of Renfrew, passed away Sunday, Nov. 8, 2026, leaving behind a lifetime of love, laughter and memories that far exceed his 24 years.
Born Jan. 16, 2002, in Franklin, Pa., Christian graduated from Seneca Valley High School in 2020, before answering the call to serve his country. He proudly and honorably served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 2020 to 2023.
To know Christian was to know someone who was unapologetically himself. Fiercely independent, strong-willed and stubborn enough to give anyone a run for their money, he had a sharp wit, endless sarcasm and an unforgettable sense of humor. Beneath his tough exterior was an extraordinarily generous and loving heart. Christian enjoyed nature, riding motorcycles, playing video games and playing guitar. He was also an active member of Oak Grove Church of Christ.
Christian is survived by his parents, Michael Cannon and Catherine (Gorman) Wise; his sister, Kaitlyn (Mark) Hayes; and his beloved nephew and best friend, Beau Hayes.
He was preceded in death by his four grandparents and great-grandmother.
Semper Fi, Christian. Forever loved, forever missed and forever unapologetically you.
CANNON — All arrangements for Christian A. Cannon, who died Sunday, Nov. 8, 2026, were made through SPENCER D. GEIBEL FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION SERVICES, 140 New Castle Road, Butler.
A celebration of life will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14, at the Butler Moose Lodge.
