I will miss Chris. A man with an amazing work ethic and common sense. He was an asset to any company. Always quick with a joke or to help someone out. Qualities not found often enough.

There are too many memories to speak of. You were my first friend when i started Brantley - I remember you just kind of decided I was okay and laughed that laugh you had. We have been friends for more than 25 years, we were roommates for a while. Lol you were the only man whose beard I braided. You stood up for me when I didn't know how to stand up for myself and in turn you leaned on me when you needed to. You will always be in my heart my friend. Always.

Chris,
You and I met at a time when we were both grieving and go through alot. You were my rock back then. We used to joke about how my brother (God rest his soul) must of sent u to me to help me get through such a difficult time. And u did help me. I will forever love u for that.
You had a smile that would light up and room. You had a very unique personality that some ppl just didnt understand. A little bit of fire and a little bit of smiles I used to say.
We lost touch of and on but no matter what we always stayed friends.
May u rest in peace Captain!!!!

God gained an angel and those who were very close to Chris gained a guardian angel. He was a very nice guy, loved to fish, and loved walks on the Freshwater Pond. He was a simple yet complex person but an all around great guy. Chris will definitely be missed but never forgotten. Little did he know that he left lots of footprints on people's lives. Fly high free bird.
