I am so sorry for your lost and in shock! Dr. Chris was an exceptional person. Randi and I loved coming for our therapy. Dr. Chris and you made us feel like family and he and I would talk about movies and life in general. He always gave good advice and I have missed his laugh and smile. You already know that he loved people and his family and he is truly missed by us. I thank God for getting to know him and you. Stay strong! You and your family continue to look up from where your help comes from and keep your hand in God's hand. May all of you be blessed.

Chris was an amazing soul. We were all blessed to have him in our lives. The time that we all spent together in high school was amazing and it is amazing as well that we all have a connection 34 years later. Cande I know the road ahead of you will be difficult beyond words. Know that so many of us are praying for you all from all around the world. The consolation in this is knowing that Chris knew the Lord and was not ashamed to admit it, nor did he try to hide. Much love to your family.
