Maria and Nicole,
I just want you to know that your family in Iowa is thinking and praying for you guys, during this dark time. We love you guys very much, and we will always love Chris. His smile, jokes and how he made us all laugh will never be forgotten. Our deepest sympathies, and please remeber he had a higher calling and is now looking over and protecting all of us.

Love,
The Kapinski, and Novak Families

Warm condolences to the Reischel family for their great loss. While we did not know Chris for a long time, he was a pillar of our neighborhood. Chris made the Berteau Ave. block party memorable every year with the special projects he would do for the kids on the block. He will be sorely missed. Maria and Nicole, our deepest sympathies go out to both of you at this difficult time.

While we did not know Chris well, the times we did spend with him were certainly memorable. We agree that he was one of the most vibrant people we have ever met and the world was certainly a better, funnier place with him in it. Our best to you and Nicole as you remember all he was to you and to everyone he came in contact with. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
