My Brother Chris's passing is a brillant autumn leaf falling to the ground.

Thanks to the Sacrifice of our Lord Jesus, we will see him again in the bright Sunshine of Eternal Spring.

My friend Chris,
You, I will miss.

You are one of the rare breed
That gave to those in need.

Without hesitation...
You were steadfast in meditation.

G-d was always in your heart,
Which set you apart.

You lived by example, not word;
Tending to deer and bird.

Perhaps you were impatient or gruff,
But a man's man, made of grit, and tough.

You were the old-fashioned kind of man
Who knew how to take a stand.

I respected you,
with so few I do.

You're sense of humor was so dry
and you didn't even have to try.

In Yiddish a mensch is what you are...
A real human being, in the sky a glowing star.

I love you buddy, and am glad I got to tell you so that evening in your big leather chair. Keep an eye on all of us from your home above.

Peace & Blessing to the entire Trawinski family.

Our sympathy & love to all of Chris's family. To me he will always be the handsome, mischievous little toddler who grew into the handsome, generous (and I suspect still mischievous), loving man.

I knew Chris from working at McCormick. He was one of the most courageous, determined, hard working person I have ever met. He was encouraging and a true inspiration. I know he will be missed by many. But I also know that Chris knew that he would one day be in heaven-cured. I thank God for that.
