Yesterday

I knew of and met Christopher after enjoying his Swing Town! a cappella production last year. So glad that my granddaughter, Deanna Keevan, invited me. More than music, his legacy of enriching the lives of young men for than three decades will bear fruit for generations.

Yesterday

Chris and I went to elementary school for 8 years and he would visit his beloved Aunt Eleanor and cousins who lived next door to me. He was what I remember to be an "old soul", always kind to me and others, genuine with a gentle demeanor. To learn of his passing so many years later brings me back to those moments. Prayers are with all of you. He was a gift to anyone who knew him.
