Chris spent many years sharing his knowledge of tropical fish and corals. He was currently associated with Aeurro Vacuums Sales & Services where his fix-it ability was valuable to his employers and customers.

He loved his family, fishing, LSU, plants, animals, and cooking, but especially his grands.

He has left us too soon but we know he will always be in our hearts.

Chris loved all things LSU and was a faithful fan through good and bad times.
