FALL RIVER - We are sad to announce that on January 25, 2024 we had to say goodbye to Christian Nelson Hood of Fall River, at the age of 60. Born in Clark Summit, PA., he was the son of the late Jim and Dorothy Hood. Christian was a former funeral director and embalmer, who worked locally in Fall River, as well as a teacher at the Kenmore Square Institute. He had many professions as a Headhunter, Retail Operations, Advertising, Adjunct Professor, and VP of Sales. He graduated from Abington Heights High School then studied at the Massachusetts School of Law at Andover, Mount Ida College and West Chester University of PA. He also enjoyed being a radio jockey and comedian. Most of all he loved going on Royal Caribbean Cruise Ships with his long-time companion Melissa Resendes of over 12 years.

Along with Melissa, he was loved and cherished by many people including his children Jessica Fioccoprile of Arizona, Annabelle Hood of Ohio, Christian Noah Hood of Taunton and Abigail Hood of Raynham; grandchild Leonardo Hood-Gerbasi; siblings Dana and James Hood; and his dog Spot, who he always called Poo-Poo.

His funeral service will take place in the Manuel Rogers Funeral Home 1521 N. Main St. Fall River on Friday, February 9th at 11 A.M. with extended calling hours from 9-11 A.M. Interment Oak Grove Cemetery.
