Love you CJ. You and I had some amazing times; my favorite might have been when you knocked on my door in college at 10am soaking wet and told me the guys paid you to jump in the penguin tank. Your spirit lives on in all of us. xo

I remember CJ's treehouse and the effort it took to get a couch up there. He had an unconquerable spirit. I ache for your loss.

We were sorry to hear about CJ. We had fond memories of watching him ski, both venues. We remember him shooting water balloons at our boat as we went by and his aim was usually pretty good. Doug and Sharon Wuerl

We are so very sorry to hear about CJ's passing. He was a great friend to our son, Tim. Our deepest sympathies to his family and friends. John and Pam McAllister
