I met Chris through a mutual friend in around 2012. He was a kind, humble, respectful person. He taught me a lot about honor, perseverance, and keeping ones word. He will surely missed by me and I know by many others that his life touched.
Chris worked with me at the Full service Diamond Oil when we were younger.
Haven’t seen him since those days.
My condolences to his family
My heart goes out to his mom, dad, wife and all other family members and friends. He was a great person in high school and had such a beautiful soul. I know with the faith he had in the past and held in his present that he is happy flying high with the good Lord. My thoughts and prays for everyone that his soul has touched in his short but fulled life. My God bless you all
