My name is David Smith. I attend St. Augustine Catholic Church. I met Chris from
his security work at the church when we had services n events. I´m usually one of the cooks/helpers when we did have events and I often made sure I offered n took him a plate of what we were cooking/serving. We always laughed about it cause he was shy about asking, but appreciative when I delivered it. Lol. I´ll miss him, cause in my travels I can truly say he was one of the good guys. My Sympathies & Condolences to the Family & Friends. #RIHChris

I attend St. Augustine Catholic Church. Chris took great pride in assuring our safety. He was well respected. He and I had great conversations about football, specifically the Dallas Cowboys. I'm certainly going to miss those conversations. His family are in my prayers.

Chris was a gentle giant that loved hard and showed it by caring for ALL of Gods children. He was a major strand in the St. Augustine Church Family and leaves some big shoes to be filled. Well done good and faithful servant, well done.

Chris is my bonus Uncle, my Masonic Brother, and my friend. When I was a little boy I used to ride with him sometimes in his Chevy Camaro. I'm going to miss him. My deepest sympathy and condolences to his entire family

Losing Chris is beyond heartbreaking. He was more than a friend, he was family in the truest sense, I will cherish the laughs and memories made.

My heart goes out to his family and everyone that loved him.
