Chris was such a blessing at McCorkle Church and will truly be missed. I have no doubt that he is with his heavenly Father today and I know that your knowing this will give you some comfort in this time of sorrow. I don’t think I have ever seen anyone that had the strong faith and the strong love for God like Chris did. He was definitely someone to look up to and admire. I am praying that God will wrap his arms around all of you and provide the peace and comfort that only he can.
