Comments = Hi Bonnie,
Susan forwarded this to me in an email. What a nice memorial. That's a great picture of
Chris. I can't say as I would have had the foggiest notion what his christened full name was.
I'm sure I've probably read it at some point in family/local records but he is and will always be
in memory "Chris". God Bless. Please send an email from time to time you might be inclined.

Comments = Love you guys and want you to know I'm thinking of you. Not just now, but
every day when thoughts of a wonderful Dad, loving husband, father-in-law, and fun grandpa
come to mind. Chris was all these things and more. All the card party memories make me
smile every time I think of them. God bless...
Love,
Rhonda
