Chris was married to Elda for 72 1/2 years. You can't hardly speak of one without speaking of the other. I grew up knowing Chris & Elda. I loved them both. They are the "salt of the earth" because of the lives they lived. Fine people that lived their lives with kindness, friendliness and giving.

I absolutely loved Uncle Chris and enjoyed visiting with him over the years. Too much time went by from seeing him the last time, but, he was with family that truly cared for him.

My condolences goes out to Nadine, Don, the kids and all that were close with Chris. May he rest in peace. Terry
