Chris was a really great guy. Never a dull moment with him around! He would give his all to anybody. He had the biggest heart! And such a great sense of humor too.
No words can express my sincere sympathy for his parents, brother, sister, and wife. As well as for my two children Sydney, and Logan. Time eases the pain. But the hole in your heart is forever.

I am so sorry for your loss.
Chris will be truly missed by all...
