Chris was a part of the fabric that is me… not just a friend. I realize that more and more as I go through pictures and I see just how much of our lives were intertwined, how much of our personalities were shaped around each other’s. We have the same birthday and were the same age. Most of my adventures in the teens and twenties involved Chris. We became friends in 9th grade and remained as close as brothers well into adulthood. He and I moved away to Albuquerque at the age of 20, looking for adventure and found it. I have a book of memories with Chris that is probably more full than any I have with my own blood relatives. Ride or Die doesn't even scratch the surface. 50 is too young to go, man! I may never make sense. You are loved and missed.. until we meet again, rest easy, bro.
