Condolences

Condolence From: Julie Sperfslage
Condolence: My heart does go out to all of Chris' family and friends - I have more than a multitude of memories of Chris and could fill pages with these memories. My heart is sadened by his passing but I tell you what he brought to my life I will never forget and neither with Hunter and Leo. From time to time our hearts cry from our own discomforts of Chris' now peace. He carried a heart many never see in a lifetime. So many things could be said in memory of him - The one thing I can say is that Chris' life and love has helped shape things to come in ways I could have never imagined. We will hold onto tomorrow and press through and make it to the day he comes running to greet us in that never forgotten roarous voice of joy he carried. He is at such peace now running and skipping along in Heaven and taken the place above praying for all of us now to enhance our lives. Forever loved and kept in our hearts.

Condolence: Adam and Andy, I am so sorry for your loss. It seems like just yesterday that I saw him at my wedding and it was so wonderful to see him. I have so many memories of him working with my dad in his shop on whatever vehicle or go cart they were building. I hope your memories bring you comfort and peace.
