Chris’s greatest devotion was to God and to his family. A faithful member of St. Mary’s Nativity Catholic Church, he was also a proud member of the Knights of Columbus. For over 25 years, he served his parish as both a choir member and director, sharing his love of music and worship with the community.

Chris also dedicated 25 years to youth athletics, serving as a soccer coach and referee throughout Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes. Beyond his service, he enjoyed playing poker, hunting, and traveling. Above all, he treasured the time he spent with family and friends. His warmth, generosity, and presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
