Our prayers and deepest Sympathy to the family. Christopher was our friend and a very special man. He always had a story, a laugh, and a smile on his face. I never met a man that had such a Look on Life, when his was on the Line. He was an Inspiration to me and the human race. He was one of a kind and will be deeply missed. I look forward to meeting him again in heaven. Good by my friend.

Marsha i am so sorry about Chris. I saw his obituary in the newspaper. He touched our hearts in so many ways. You guys were such cool neighbors. Chris was always willing to help Ron and I out all the time. He made us laugh a lot ..I will never forget him playing the tune to "Rocky" while he was playing pool in the one bedroom, the many nights we sat outside in the front yard. He was a very good man. Thoughts and prayers sent your way from me and my family. JoAnn
