Created February 10th, 2026

Please help us support Caitlyn and her children after the devastating loss of her husband, Detective Christopher Skrobot on Thursday, February 5th, 2026, after a courageous battle of cancer. All proceeds will go to Detective Skrobot's family for the future needs of his children, Hunter and Madison.

Detective Christopher Skrobot began his distinguished career with the New Castle County Police Department on January 19th, 2016, as a member if the 42nd Recruit Class. Following his graduation from the Police Academy, he was assigned to B-Squad in the Patrol Division, where he quickly earned a reputation as a dedicated officer who led by example, consistently demonstrating professionalism, integrity, and a strong commitment to the community. 

In October 2020, after completing the rigorous Police Motorcycle Operators Course, he became a certified member of the New Castle County Police Motorcycle Unit, where he proudly rode a motorcycle for escorts, parades, and special events. In December 2020, Detective Skrobot was transferred to the Evidence Detective Unit, where he made an immediate impact and quickly established himself as a thorough, meticulous investigator, a role he held for the remainder of his career. 

Detective Skrobot was also a dedicated volunteer with the Claymont Fire Company, committing himself to public service, a commitment that remained at the heart of his career. Along with the volunteer fire service, Detective Skrobot took multiple tours out west as a Wildland Firefighter. 

In April 2024, Chris was diagnosed with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), a form of blood cancer. Despite this challenge, he continued to serve his community and support his family with courage and dedication.

Hi Caitlyn, I hope you and your family are managing as best you can under the circumstances. Chris fought long and hard, and was blessed to be surrounded by your incredible love and support. His sendoff was truly a dignified and fitting tribute, and I was honored to be a part of it and to celebrate his life. I’m so glad that the two of you found each other, especially after hearing all of the stories (I especially love the one about his truck getting stuck and Chris sending you home so your dad wouldn’t kill him!). I hope this donation helps in some small way, but please know that I’m always happy to be here for you and family. Even though I haven’t been able to be around the firehouse as much in recent years, your family, from your grandparents on down, has always meant a great deal to me. I look forward to catching up sometime soon. Best always, Sean
