So sad to hear. Chris was always there to help when I needed it. And always with a smile. He showed me the foolproof way to win in an arm wrestle! Hope Ginger is ok.
RIP my friend.

Chris always called me his little big brother. He was taller than me. I have many many memories and it is hard to pick just one. However, one that sticks out in my mind right now was a time we were first learning to be whitewater guides. We learned together and worked together as guides for about 4 years. I wish I could have one more river trip with him. Love you little brother, until we meet again you will forever be in my heart and on my mind. In this picture we were at Sea World in San Diego.

Chris has always been the first to lend a hand and help anyone in need. He had a smile and laugh that would spark up any room. You will truly be missed brother.
