Just a note to you my dear half brother. I am so sorry we never got to meet, your friends all said you were a great guy and i believe that to be true. We'll see and meet each other in Heaven. Hey, ask Jesus, How much longer?" Lol

See you then 1/2 Bro!

Dear Diane, Danny (and family) & Mr. Wick,

My deepest condolences on the passing of Chris. Chris and I go way back to swimming days. We swam together for the Hurricanes swim team, against each other in high school (relays, thank God) and with each other again at UM. Life and swimming was much better with him. Chris was an awesome competitor, best friend and best man at my wedding. I have so many great memories of him both in and out of the pool. He had a great 200 freestyle,...

I am so sorry to hear of Chris' passing. I swam with Chris at U of Miami for only one year but I do remember a story that is the stuff of legend. I think it was in 1980 or 81 that Chris was swimming at the National Independent Conference Championships, where he placed 8th in the morning 200 free race, and came back that evening in the finals and won from the outside lane. Great performance from a great guy. I will remember that always. My deepest condolances to his family.

To the Wick Family
Clive and I remember so well when Chris was born. Danny was a swimmer at the Corla Gables Country Club with our three children. The first time Mary brought Chris to the pool(as a tiny infant) all the swimmers jumped out of the pool to see this precious little boy. He grew up to be such a fine young man. The family has been so close, helping each other out when there was a need. We were so sorry we were out of town for the service, but please know that our thoughts and...

Diane,
I am so sorry for the delay in expressing our condolences for the loss of Chris. Though we did not know Chris as well as other members of the family did, everything we saw in Chris and heard about were nothing but the best. If we can be of help in any way, please let us know.

Dear Mr. Wick and Dan,

My condolences to your family. I have many memories of Chris and his love for boating. Please know that my thoughts are with you.

Dearest Allison, Danny, Danielle, Tori, Diane, and Dan Sr., May our loving God comfort your heart and soul. Chris is at peace. We love you.
