Christopher worked as an electrician for Dow Chemical Company and was very talented at his craft.  At Dow, he met and fell in love with the love of his life, Brittany, and they remained married for 4 years until his passing.  Together, they raised their children.  His family will always fondly remember him for his love of dogs.  Christopher was passionate about training his champion hunting retrievers and was a member of the Colorado River Retriever Club.  Sadly, Christopher is preceded in death by his most cherished labrador, Ranger.  Besides his dogs, Christopher enjoyed fishing, hunting, playing golf and he was described as an avid sportsman.  But aside from all that, what brought him the most joy in his life was the cherished time he spent with his children and his wife.
