Not sure what to say?

I only knew you for a little while, but for the times that I did know you when I was with Christin, you were quite the character.. Rest in Paradise my friend!

Uncle Chris was always a tough nut to crack. But I loved him so very much! I have so many memories of him growing up. I remember believing he had a glass eye.... lol. My favorite memory will always be the day he slipped and said I love you too Jody on the phone. I squealed and Aunt Lori and I had such a laugh over it. I miss you so much already. Rest easy with Gigi and Papa uncle Chris. Until we meet again. I love you. And I promise not to call Aunt Lo during dinner time!

When I first met Chris he told me he had a wooden leg. When he started dating my sister Lori I asked her if he did have a wooden leg and she told me he did. I believed that for some time till I saw him in shorts. They both enjoyed teasing me about that. Rest in peace Chris.
