Chris,

I am so sad that you are no longer with us. But I'll be forever grateful for all of the laughs and good times we've had at Lexington! I'll always remember and hold close all of the great advice you've given me and I'll never ever forget everything you've done for me. The world lost a amazing person, but it's not goodbye - it's "see you later."

Love and miss you always,
Caitlin
