My heart goes out to all of Chris' family. He was a truly unique and wonderful man. I love him still very much. It is with many tears and a heavy heart I will try to move forward with his sense of humor and truly beautiful smile in my heart. He was a true artist and one of the best at any one of his chosen crafts. Forever he will live on in mine and my family's hearts & souls. He TRULY and undoubtedly touched my heart and soul where he changed my life and hunger for knowledge & art forever. You will be forever missed. All My Love
