Chris was an amazing man who loved the Lord with all his heart and he strived to show Gods love in everything he did and to everyone he met. He was an angel here on earth and he will be greatly missed. He loved his daughter Christian and his grandchildren Jackson, Fayelynn and Heaven with his whole heart and they gave him great joy. He met his wife Jennifer only a few short years ago and in the words of a song he wrote for her he said
“I can’t help but feel my heart bubbling with the love I’ve found. I just wanted you to know that I’m bound. God saw every moment I looked for a woman who had what it took. He gave me you and now I’m whole. The two are made one. I’m so in love with you and I can’t believe that you love me too.”
“Hey baby I love you, hey angel you know I do. You have me forever and you always will. I’ll be there for you, it’s God’s will. Always and forever, we will always be together. I love you”
They had an amazing love that will endure for all time until they meet again in heaven.
He loved his brother James and sister in law Tonya and enjoyed fishing, grilling, and playing guitar will them and many other friends and family. He lived his life helping others and he never met a stranger. People were naturally drawn to Chris and his quite calming ways. He was an inspiration to all who knew him.
