This is certainly sad. I remember Chris from my elementary/Jr high days. We were classmates and friends as much as you can be in the days when girls and boys are afflicted with "cooties."

I remember a mischievous, rough n tumble sort who often had the same smile as depicted in the photo above. I went to a different high school and have not seen Chris or many other friends I went to Georgia with in many years; however, it is a group of people I will forever consider friends no matter what. It appears that Chris went on to have a productive, happy life and a loving family, fulfilling a passion along the way, something that alludes many of us.

God bless and farewell on your next journey.

Chris's wife Betty lived here in Fairfax across the street from the Old Hotel here in the village when she was growing up.  Her father Don Collins was a game warden and her mothers name was Marlene.
