Design is up and has been approved by Chris's Close friends. Quotes are in the making to get the ball rolling.

 

I spoke with my boss today about this and he mentioned that if you follow certain procedures the Hospital should not be able to try to recoup any medical cost through them since he isn't a minor.
Part of it was putting out an obit in the paper.

I dont know the rest and he didn't but this might be something to look into to help take care of the family.

 

Most of you guys know me. You might not remember my screen name, but I know most all of you. I don't usually post on here due to work conflict of interest issues, but I felt I needed to.

First off, THANK YOU! The level of support and sympathy means a lot to his family and myself. Chris was one of my very best, if not THE best friend I've ever had. Between myself and GoodEnough, one of saw him just about everyday. To say I miss him would be like trying to fix the hole in the Titanic with Duct tape. The void is just too great. Just in the time he's been in the hospital, my life had already started to change. The fact that he wasn't a phone call away or sitting on the couch across from me, set in well before his mother called me early Saturday. It's strange to have him missing. I sit here, my life disrupted in a way that I can't yet comprehend, and then I remember what matters. I'm one person. I'm one person that was lucky enough to know him as well as I did. He was like the brother I never had. Chris touched so many others besides myself. He was loved and laughed by so many of us here. I'm sure many of us have a memory of a quote or joke we remember him for. Please keep him alive in your thoughts. When the weather turns, and we are all out there doing our thing, going to meets or the track, remember him.

I know I'm rambling on, but please be sure to keep his family, especially his dad in your thoughts. I'm not a father, but I can think of nothing worse than losing a child.

His family has trusted me to be their voice to his friends, and his mother is just blown away by the response she is hearing about. She honestly had no idea how much Chris touched so many people. Please come out to his memorial services if at all possible. I want her to see what he meant to us.

Thanks for all the offers of help and support. His family and I deeply appreciate it. I am in the process of getting the donation account set up and will post that tomorrow (hopefully). There will be paypal and a mailing address to send checks if you prefer. I don't want them to go to his house, as it would be overwelming right now. It would be better and simpler to give it to them all at once. More info to follow.

Memories live forever. In those, so will Chris. Rest in Peace brother... Your absence runs deep.

I 'drove next to him' once when he was missing third gear and would always see him around victory. Really sad news, RIP man.
