Chris is also survived by his aunt Connie (Mike) Rutkowski, his uncle Stan (Celene) Post, his friend and former wife Holly (John Mays) Schroeder, and many cousins. Chris was preceded in death by his parents.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday afternoon, March 23, 2024, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at Stories of a Lifetime (SOAL), 6040 39th Ave, Suite #5, Kenosha, WI.

When we met at the carnival, and his smile.

We took the kids camping with some friends. We got there late and set up the tents in the dark. The next day it downpoured. When it was downpouring we realized that the rain cover for our tent was put on wrong and almost everything in our tent was soaked. Chris made the best of this situation. Instead of getting upset he danced in the rain. Then all the kids started playing in the mud. It was a muddy mess but we all had a blast.
