You left too soon, when I was too little, so I never got the chance to get to know you. I know you taught me how to fish once, but that’s all I know. Looking at these Reflections it seems like I missed out on a great guy and an amazing person. I wish I got to know you better, but God needed you up in heaven. Rest In Peace Chris
