We extend our sincere condolences to Chris’s family, friends, fellow veterans, and all whose lives he touched. His service and memory will continue to be honored. Chris was a valued part of the Air Heritage Aviation Museum family. His support, friendship, and lasting contributions to help restore the McDonnell Douglas F-15A Eagle fighter jet at the museum will be remembered with deep gratitude by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
I knew Chris in high school. Even though our interests didn’t overlap much, he was always an open, friendly, kindhearted dude. He was like that with everyone. He was a great guy.
