    Without Chris I would have never discovered great music like I did. He was one of the sweetest souls I have ever known. Almost all of my best memories of growing up involve Chris. We were friends immediately and he was close enough to be my brother at one time. He was loyal enough to let me in and out of his life numerous times and was always there when needed. He was not perfect. But he had a way to lift those around him at the right time. I know Chris as the perpetual optimist. He would hit a wall and just run into it harder. This skill helped him learn guitar. Above almost everything Chris was a self taught musician. The way he made it look so easy. The many, many nights of practicing for as long as I have known him leading to the amazing talent he had playing guitar. He is a talent I will truly miss. Please remember my friend Chris as the great musician he was. I promise you he will appreciate it.

    Love and prayers to the girls and family.
    Loved Chris like a brother. He was always the best friend you could have, and the proudest father ever.
    Will miss him forever and wished we still worked together, with him living in my house, and cooking yummy meals together.
    Love you Brother.
