I remember Chris from Saint Benedict´s in 8th grade. He was a great athlete but also person with good insights into others. He always surprised by his awareness of others and the hidden wisdom he would drop.

I´ll remember Chris and his infectious laugh and the soccer talent he brought to me and our team at St. Benedict´s Prep. I send my strength and prayers to his family and friends and share in their loss.
