In 1998 Christopher became a founding Director and Vice President for Bridge of Hope Ministries International, Chris served faithfully with his time and financial giving for 15 years. He was part of the backbone of this ministry and will be sorely missed.
Christopher had a great sense of humor and loved to kid around. He was always very polite and forgiving. He was a very private person and kept to himself mostly but those he knew and knew him valued him as a friend.
Christopher loved to read his Bible and have deep discussions with others. He was a member of Bible Truth Church for thirteen years and had a deep respect for his church and his pastor.

Chris can truly say “I have fought the good fight of faith…”
Christopher made a significant difference in people’s lives with his giving. He will always be remembered and missed by those who were close to him.
We love you Chris!
