PAST                    NEXT
* For Chris *

On the left, this is a picture of my cousin Chris Swope, with my father there on the right, teasing an tormenting him. Chris was always a very special kid who never really seemed mature past the age of 10. Struggling through his young life and into the demanding responsibilities of adulthood, Chris had gotten a part time job and even had his own apartment. His family and friends constantly helping out, they had been preparing to take him to dinner to celebrate his 32nd birthday when he was found. Apparently he had slipped off in his sleep and never awoke.

Chris will surely be missed by me and many others that he has left behind in this lifetime.
