My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this sad time. Chris, Tony, Brent and myself use to play basketball together in my backyard many years ago. When I heard of Chris' passing, my thoughts went back to how he use to make all those baskets from just about any spot he stood! He will surely be missed. Please let me know if there is anything you need.
