Only you and I know all of the real ins and outs of our friendship and the eventful journey that it has been. I rest easy knowing that you are at peace with everything, and I take comfort in the fact that you are up there smiling down and protecting the ones that you have loved and blessed so much. You are without a doubt a great, amazing man and you are already sorely missed. I will miss your ridiculously quick wit, wicked sense of humor, wise words, your passion for sports, your laugh, and your huge heart. So long friend. I love you Chris!

Cheryl and Cecily,
I'm so, so sorry for the loss of your brother. I loved Chris' sense of humor, and I can hear his laughter right now. Take comfort in knowing he's with Candy and your dad, and I'm sure they're having a huge laugh of their own!
Hugs to you both,

Chris, I will never forget the time we spent together as teenagers in young Republicans trying to get Nixon re-elected in 72'. Our paths separated in college and we did not run into each other again until 2008 when you started coming into my tanning salon while you were in Midland.
By that time your health was poor, but you still always had a smile on your face and a kind word.
You made the world a better place Chris. Thank you and by the grace of God we will see you later.

Chris..you will be greatly missed although I only knew you for 4 months you made a great impact on my life, you taught me to always be happy and thank the lord for all we have, you also taught me how to make a mean "green Chile cheese burger" that was your favorite and if it didn't make you feel better, we didn't know what would..God bless you Chris, I know you're in a much happier and worry free place you brought so much happiness to everyone around you including myself we will miss you friend.

Dearest Chris, You know how much I love you. I will miss you dearly. I'll always remember the great times we had together. The "tortilla", "fiddle fart", farkel, jammin to Mrs. Jones, forgetting your pay check, and being there for me at my going away party when it was a rough night are just a few of my wonderful memories of times we shared. You were a great friend and I will miss you. Heaven just got a new angel and you get to see all your "pups" again.
Sincere sympathy and prayers to all your family. Love, Valerie
