He worked as an Information Technology Services Professional across various cities, including San Antonio, St. Louis, and Chicago, before returning to Springfield in 2003. Chris was a lively character, always ready for a good laugh and enjoyed spending time outdoors.
He is preceded in death by his parents and oldest sister, Zana Harris. He is survived by his son Christopher Schuler (Chicago) and daughter Christen Schuler (London, England), two sisters Marilyn Ann Byrd (Springfield) and Alana Lyles (Springfield), and a host of nieces and nephews.
"Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near, so loved, so missed, so very dear.
