He was born on November 4, 1967 at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Parkersburg, WV. He graduated from Parkersburg South High School in 1986. He then graduated from West Virginia University at Parkersburg with a degree in Industrial Maintenance and obtained multiple certifications in welding, and had a successful career in the oil and gas industry.
Chris loved any activity that allowed him to be outside; hunting, fishing, camping, and especially extreme fire-building, to name a few. He was a lifetime member of the NRA. He coached TRI-C baseball teams and Ravenswood softball teams for several years. Above all else, Chris loved his family, friends, and dogs, who he considered part of his family. He was the type of man who would always show up, that those he cared about could depend on. He would do anything in his power to help those he loved.
