Dear Chris I've known you since middle school and all I can say is you will be greatly missed. One of the best memories I have is drawing stick figure wars in mr.starks class and just doodling sharing jokes with each other. As a fellow service member it Hurst to know that a fellow brother has fallen but don't worry I know your still fighting the fight and looking out for all of us from up there.

Our condolences to you, Rob and Sheila. Parker is just about a year younger than Christian and I can't imagining him being gone. We have fond memories of living near you in Okinawa and visiting you in Beijing. You have always been good to us. You are in our prayers.
