It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Christopher (Chris) Michael Barkley of London, Ontario on April 5, 2026, at the age of 46. Chris was the beloved son of Thomas and Irene Barkley. He will be deeply missed by his older brother Stephen (Christina), loving twin sister Michelle (Shaun),  and his sister Angela. He was a proud and loving uncle to Reilly, Payton, Caelen, and Brinley, who brought him so much joy. Chris will be remembered for his kind heart, quiet strength, and resilience. A Christian man of faith, he carried a big heart and a deep love for his family and for dogs. Fondly known as "One Shot" by his beloved late Grandparents, Chris carried that nickname with him throughout his life and the special bond they shared. He now finds peace reunited with them. He will be forever loved and never forgotten.
