WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Christopher Eric Jacobsen, 62 of Williamstown, Mass., died Monday, August 10, 2020, at his home.

He was born in Oceanside, New York, on November 26, 1957, a son of Velma (deMello/Jacobsen) Fuller. Chris attended high school in Delmar, N.Y., and continued his education to earn several degrees after serving in the Navy. Christopher was employed for many years as the Manager of Quality Assurance at Steinerfilm in Williamstown.

Chris is survived by his mother and father, Velma and William Fuller; daughters April and Danielle Jacobsen; grandchildren Dhaysia and Alfred "Tre" Hill and Tabitha and Vincent Savaria; his sister Karen Jacobsen; brother Neil Jacobsen and his wife Karen; a niece and nephew; and an aunt, uncles, and many cousins.

You were always sure to see Chris driving through the mountains in his hybrid with the windows down and the music turned up. Or going for walks with his closest friend, Elizabeth Smith. Chris was a loving and attentive grandfather and enjoyed the many playdates and FaceTime calls with the grandkids. He was known to stop and show home videos of the kids with friends and co-workers. Some of his favorite memories were of going through the echo tunnel with his youngest grandkids, Tabitha and Vincent, to hear who could howl the loudest, sharing a love of photography with his granddaughter Dhaysia, and spending time on bikes with his grandson Tre. His love of books and reading was instilled in his children through countless hours spent reading at bedtime and he kept on that tradition by reading aloud to his grandchildren whenever the opportunity presented itself.

He was a loving father that would do anything to make his children’s lives better. His house was also a home away from home for his children’s friends to spend their time. Chris was always ready to tell a story, sit out by the fire in the backyard, or serve one his many infamous meals. He will be remembered with love and greatly missed.
