I worked with Chris at GP. He was a good man. We enjoyed talking about our children as our sons were similar in age. It was obvious that he was a loving father and husband. He was also always willing to help others at work as well. I was saddened to hear of his passing and pray for peace for his loved ones.

I will truly miss Chris. He was very helpful and faithful when you ask for assistance. He did it with a smile and went the extra mile if needed without asking. It will be hard for me not seeing him around Greater New Galilee Baptist Church, but God has a special angel. He was a blessed angel here on earth so I know he is a blessed angel in heaven.
