Chris , You will be sadly missed by all of your army buddies and we were so glad that you took the time back in April to join us for our first military reunion . It was a highlight in everyone's life to be back together with all . We were truly Brothers in Arms. It saddens all of us to know you have departed but we will rejoice once again ,my brother. You will certainly humor God as you have humor all of us . My condolences to the family . Chris was a very special person to so many. His old army buddy, Patrick M. Thornton
