Gary & Clara...my heart breaks for both of you. Christopher was my little brother in so many ways, as you both well know. I'm glad that I got to spend some time with him Memorial Day weekend and I'll cherish all the times that he & I met up at Lake Somerville when we were younger. I loved him dearly and will miss him more than you'll ever know. If either of you need me, I'm here....always! Love you so much!

Chris was a 4-H agent here in Johnson County while both of my kids were in the 4-H program. He chaperoned both of their Washington DC trips and we traveled to numerous livestock shows together. Although quiet at first glance, once you got to know Chris, he was alot of fun with a great smile. He was well respected here and will be greatly missed. My heart goes out to his family. Tammy

Chris was an exceptional friend, neighbor and coworker. We always had fun together! My best memories of Chris are from when we lived across the street from one another. He had a big heart and always took time to listen to me when I needed someone to talk to. He will forever be in my heart!
Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Schneider for raising Chris to be such a wonderful person to share with all of us! I am sorry he was taken so soon. May the memories of him last forever in the heart of his friends and family.
