One of the best memories I have is playing at the Riverside Brewery with Chris, Mid, Tom, Fred and me, Scott. Being in a band with the wrong people can be stressful, but this group of the 5 of us was the best ever. We had fun and we really liked each other as people too. When we would practice at Chris house afterwards Victoria would always make us some delicious food to eat. It was the best of times, and the 4th of July parties too. 
Chris was an awesome person. Really miss him.

Chris was such a great friend and person. I'm finding it hard to accept that he is gone, but I know how much he was suffering, especially in 2022. We used to take turns calling each other through the pandemic and it was his turn to call me which didn't happen. In 2023, on Mother's Day I tried to call him at my wife Juanitas suggestion, and that's when we found out he had passed away from Google. 
Chris was the person that was always supportive and a wonderful and rare person to have as a friend. We met at the Java Books Coffee Shop in Orangecrest where our band was playing and Midnight Holmes had set up for us to meet and try to recruit him as our drummer. He accepted and quickly became one of the best friends I have ever had. Our friendship went well beyond our love of music and has lasted through all our physical and mental ups and downs in life that we encountered.  Emily is right he didn't deserve all the suffering he endured. I will miss him dearly and hope he is hanging with the Angels in Heaven and smiling down on those of us left here on earth during these crazy times. RIP Chris, you were loved by many.

So Chris!  You're there- with those that have gone before you.  I found out today, so sorry, that you passed away on December 12th, 2022.  Another good one has left the earth!   I remember the fun times you, Rick, & I, had.  We had great times with you at our local casinos- I remember you were the real High Roller, while we were the  Two Chickens.  Thanks for coming to visit us, when you were in our neighborhood on your lunch breaks.  It was always great to catch up with our friend Chris.  Thanks for putting the rolling storage cart together for us- it still has a cool place in my house.  I'll always remember you doing that.  Thanks for being a great friend to me, when Rick passed away.  As I read what your Family & Friends have written, I see they agree- You Were A Good One!  So now, I know you've found Rick up there, and the laughter & fun continues.  Both so young to leave!  Take care of each other!

I finally got to see the memorial service today. It was beautiful. I remember when Chris was so little and all of you lived garden grove in the little house. I especially loved when we all got together in your backyard with Bob and Henrietta and Uncle Frank and Uncle John. It was such a grand time.  I remember how Bruno and Frank would be the horses and the kids would be riding them and the uncles would race and all of you would be laughing and screaming with glee.   Those were happy times. I especially remember when Chris got his magic kit and he said he wanted to be a “magician”. He was so serious about that 

You may not have been my Uncle by blood, but you were my Uncle by love. You were always there with my parents while I was growing up. You treated me as if I was your niece. Every year, 1 week before every birthday and every Christmas, Chris would call and ask me what I would like for my birthday or for Christmas and my response was always the same "Anything by Crayola Uncle Chris!" And then he would sit and color or draw with me when my birthday or Christmas came. Every Halloween he would scare me with his skeleton mask, even though I knew it was coming, he'd still get me! During the summers when he would come over to go swimming with us he would stick his foot out of the water and pretend it was Jaws and make the Jaws soundtrack music and chase us as best he could. Miss you Uncle Chris. I hope that you and dad found each other on the other side.

You will be missed and fondly remembered Chris!! 


You will always be a part of my Company Chris. 

I will always cherish all the wonderful memories of 4th of July parties at your house. We still talk about those times quite often & those will always be some of my favorite childhood memories. From singing karaoke to listening to you & Uncle Marc jam out those are cherished memories for sure. Fly high Uncle Chris. Love you! ❤️ 

My big brorher♥️ he loved the water, his daughter & his momma! We didn't always see things the same way but i always admired your love of life. Watching your health decline was so hard but you never gave up! Fly high chris, XO

Its weird how people come into your life unexpected.  That was how it was with Chris.  Thank you Chris for the nice talks, laughs and the beautiful drumming you did.  Superman from 3 doors down is the song that reminds me of you.  Your drumming was awesome.   Thank you for being you and nice memory I have of you.  Thank you for the music 🎶 that I enjoyed to hear from Stingray.  I will always remember your bday.  January 31.  The whole world always celebrates it.  You are truly missed.  😇
