I didnt know Chris before we met at Computer Learning Center around 2000. I met him there any his personality and mine immediately clicked together. it wasnt until a few hours ago when i am going through the fun times of education verification for a background check that i ran into so many hurdles i thought to google some of my old classmates and ran into this page. He was able to brighten the mood of any room he was in. My condolences go out to his family. email if they wish to say anything to me. alfredo[dot]marchena[at]gmail[dot]com. Beautiful soul taken up above so young.
