Claude "CJ" Philip Bjorson

Claude "CJ" Philip Bjorson, 34 years young, bravely transitioned from this world and entered his forever life on December 29th, 2022 having battled a rare cancer for longer than anyone could have imagined. CJ was met for his new journey by his son, Junior, as well as numerous family ready to show him his new paradise.

Born May 20th, 1988 in Grand Coulee, CJ never settled for anything less than what he wanted. He lived life to the absolute fullest. He mastered any skill needed, well-remembered by many in the positions held at Safeway, Les Schwab, and UPS. CJ was also a volunteer firefighter for Grand Coulee Fire Department. Just talking to CJ brightened peoples' day and he became good friends with anyone he talked to.

CJ had many interests including hunting, snowmobiling, fishing, jet-skiing, dirt biking, boating, camping, and sports to name a few. He had a great love for bowling, being a long-time league bowler at Riverview Lanes and rolling a perfect 300 game three times. He also loved football, and watched every second of his beloved Oregon Ducks and Dallas Cowboys games. He loved to watch his children and many nieces and nephews play any sport, cheering them all on.

CJ's greatest joy was brought to him by his children, Alivia, Brynlynn, and Cashton. Anything that his children were involved in brought him the happiest memories. CJ was happiest and at the most peace when everyone would get together and children were having an awesome time. Camping trips, going to the races, or simply sitting around a fire pit made him the happiest. Family was the most important gift for him.

CJ is survived by his children Alivia (14), Brynlynn (9), Cashton (6), parents Dale & Robin, siblings Krissy (Tyler) Donn, David (Jamie) Bjorson, Jessica Bjorson, and numerous nieces, nephews, various family, and so many friends that became family to him and his family.

A celebration of life is planned for May 20, location to be determined. A web viewing tribute can be accessed at http://www.rivervalleyfuneral.com/obituaries/.
