Dear Rick and Patrick We are so sorry for the loss of your dear son and brother Chris. Our family along with many others will feel this saddness for a very long time. Our hearts are very heavy right now. And we continue to pray for both of you. Our comfort is knowing that Chris was an amazing young man that Justin was so proud to call his best friend and his buddy. We however will miss that happy go lucky kid that would walk through our doors. We are so proud of his accomplishments in such a short period of time. As Justin put it, Chris was such a good golfer and gave him such good pointers. He will never be replaced as Justin's best friend. Justin was so happy for Chris when he received his golf scholarship and as he put it, was because "HE DESERVED IT ". We loved him like he was our own. Our deepest regrets Craig, Betty, Justin and Dube family

Rick: We were extremely shocked and saddened to hear the tragic news of your son. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
