Gail,
Sendng you and your family so much love on this sad anniversary.
I truly believe he's still around you, you just can't see him. A song, an event, a sign from nature, a single breeze on an otherwise calm day..his way of letting you know he's watching over all of you.
With warm regards and love,
Janet R.

From our family to yours our sincere condolences during this very tragic time in your lives. We still cannot believe he is actually gone. He was such a joy to be around, always had a smile and a hello for everyone. He was such an inspiration to all his athletes who will never forget what he taught them. Our hearts will be hurting for such a long time knowing he is no longer with us. We will be praying for your family for the strength to get through these trying times. Have not in knowing his memory will live on in all the athletes he has coached over all these years. Whenever we see Spider-Man, smell a spicy cologne, tell someone they are being a bar hog, or hey someone say hey kid we will think of him.

Chris was a source of inspiration to generations of athletes and their families. With patience, integrity and good humor, he taught them to
persevere, face adversity with courage and balance education with recreation. He was part of the MTG family that helped create a " home away from home" that our daughter looked forward to returning to on breaks from college. She felt privileged to have a job in the gym to learn his perspective as a coach and see how he " cared for each and every person. " It's a tragic loss, our condolences to his family.
