Chris and I had our lockers next to each other for 4 years at Catholic Central. He was my "locker buddy". He was a great guy with a big smile! Wishing his family peace as they grieve his loss. -Beth Bradley-Schmitt

So very sorry for entire family. Chris was always there for me when I needed him. He loved his plants, his animals, and his bike. I will always remember our little drives to McConnell's and our family talks. May he be with my dad now. They were great buddies.
