Chris also owned a 37 Dodge pick-up with a phase his Dad stole from him stating, "Wasted Wages". Chris took a lot of pride in the work he did and as told, he never met a stranger. He enjoyed bowling with his Dad. was a repo man at one time, a bouncer, and a body builder. He had a special friend Heather Fritch he enjoyed spending time with her.
