Dear Mom and Dad,
Thanks to God and to you, we know, without a doubt, that our brother, Chris, has made it into eternity and is in utter peace with Jesus. You prepared him for life everlasting by raising him to love God and all people during his short time on earth. We can only hope and pray to be able to parent our children with the integrity and love you raised us with and continue to share. It is in loving each other that we will survive Chris's loss, and in our closeness to him that he continues to live in each of us. Thank you for teaching us to turn towards each other and towards God in our joys as well as in our sorrows.
With more love than you can imagine,
Your Daughters

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Plummer and family,
It was such an honor for my children and me to meet with you on Memorial day. While my children, Trevor, Katie, and Hannah (as well as all of Rick's family & friends) will miss their father, please know that we are in prayer for you and your loss. I found even more comfort within your comfort that you expressed from God and may it always carry you through. We are all saddened and distraught over your great loss. Although we never met Chris, having met you, he is immortalized as a great man. We will continue and never stop our prayers for God's peace, comfort, and presence in your lives. May God bless and comfort you always.

I worked with Chris when he was at Nortel. We became friends and we all went on a few ski trips together. Chris and I learned to snowboard together at Snowshoe in 2001. I will always remember his sense of humor and how driven he was. My prayers are with you and your family.

To the Plummer Family:
Please accept our most sincere sympathies in the loss of your son and brother, Chris. I did not have the chance to actually meet Chris, but I worked with his sister, Lisa, at the International Association of Fire Chiefs for nearly 2 years- and I feel I knew him through her. She loved him very, very much, and was so proud of him.
We are a military family, too, and we are proud of Chris as well. He clearly served with honor and dignity, and his loss is a loss to our entire nation.
May God bless you all.

Dear family & friends:
I would take this brief opportunity to offer my sincere condolences. As a lifelong friend, mentor (in CAP), roommate (UF), and battle buddy (ROTC), he was a genuine friend and leader. His determination, persistence, and candor remains unmatched.
May he rest in peace.

Dear plummer family,
I met Chris as a cadet in the Civil Air Patrol. We both later served in 20th group, and the 478th Civil affairs together. He was my battle buddy at both units. I learned a lot of important lessons from Chris while growing up and will miss him sorely. He was really a good friend, the kind you don't find often.
I offer my sincere condolences for your loss.
