I first remember meeting Chris in T-ball for Park and Rec when we were in grade school. My parents told me to make friends with him because they knew his parents. I ran into him again in middle school, because we both had to take summer school that year. We didn't get along. We both left Aquinas Middle school to thrive in public school. Despite our Summer school differences, he took me under his wing in high-school even though he was Logan, and I was Central high. That really surprised me! I was always welcomed at the Callahan household, and they are still like a second family to me. I think about him and his father every day and always will.

We were all so lucky to know Chris. Soft spoken and gentle. Chris did not suffer any fools, so when he liked you, it was especially meaningful. Gone too soon.

So very sorry to hear about loss of Chris. As a Sixth Grade student he ALWAYS added a positive spark to my day! I think he was Sir Francis Drake in our 1st ever Wax Museum. He found out I had basic knowledge of
WWF, and often start some days off with the latest drama. He was most impressed with my Randy Savage
voice. Not often enough, but when our paths would cross, we always had pleasant conversations. Sir Francis will be missed by many!
