I first wanted to read through this list of memories of my nephew Chris and found he had such a multitude of friends who loved him and was inspired by him. The comments so befitting of a man’s life on earth would almost seemed as if it was a man of later years in their 60’s or 70’s. An impression Chris has made on so many, and so many that have not yet made their comments and tributes known yet… it’s then I wonder ‘WHY’ at such a young age a life is taken from those who loved Chris. A sad day indeed for all who scratch their heads no doubt with the same question…WHY? Chris by your co-workers, you were well thought of. by your friends, you were well thought of… and by we, your family, not only well thought of, but LOVED and will be missed by us as we will continue to ask ourselves…WHY? ~ Uncle Mark
Chris, I was in shock when I read of this tragic accident and immediately contacted Kevin & Mikey to see what happened … I’m sorry it had to happen like this but all I can hope is that you’re at peace now and riding your Harley thru the Heaven’s … R.I.P.
