Remembering Christopher
A life held close in memory
Christopher Damon Hill was born August 12, 1992, and grew up in Lorain, Ohio. Though publicly available records about his everyday life are limited, official sources identify him as a 16‑year‑old whose presence in the community was part of the young life of the city. He is remembered in public records as a young man of his neighborhood and era — someone who belonged to family, friends, and a community that has continued to grieve his loss.
The official record of Christopher’s death notes that he was 16 at the time he was shot on June 22, 2009 in the area of West 17th Street and Long Avenue in Lorain. That morning and the days that followed were difficult for his loved ones; public law‑enforcement materials indicate the incident remained the subject of an active, unsolved investigation. While the details of the event are part of the public record, Christopher’s life and identity extend beyond those circumstances: the date of his birth, his youth in Lorain, and the fact that his death affected family and neighbors are the verifiable threads we can hold on to when honoring him.
Because there is no published obituary or family‑authorized memorial publicly available that matches his name and the exact date of death, few personal details — such as schooling, hobbies, or close family remembrances — are available in reliable public sources to include here. That scarcity of detail does not lessen the reality of Christopher’s life or the loss felt by those who knew him. He was a young person whose future was cut short, and the record shows a community that has continued to seek answers and to remember him.
This page honors Christopher Damon Hill by acknowledging the person named in official records: a son of Lorain, born August 12, 1992, whose life ended June 22, 2009. May this remembrance respect his dignity and the grief of family and friends who carried his memory forward. If you have verified, family‑authorized remembrances or photographs you wish to share for a memorial page, please consider contacting local memorial or library archives so his story can be told with the fuller detail his loved ones might provide.
