Just learned of Chris' passing. So very sad to hear this. Our prayers go to his family. We know Chris from his work on our home...we saw every wonderful trait in Chris mentioned in his obituary as he did his amazing work. He loved his family and talked of them often. He went on the DC trip at that time and we enjoyed hearing about it. Such an amazing good family man. I saw him periidically in the last couple of years and we always had a great talk. RIP Chris. You made a difference and left your mark on so many. With deepest sympathy, Freddie & Sheryl Murray
