Christopher was born October 8, 1985 and raised in north St. Louis County, attending St. Catherine of Alexandria Catholic grade school and St. Thomas Aquinas High School. He graduated High School at Trinity High School in 2004. In High School Chris excelled at soccer and track. Upon graduation he attended Florissant Valley Community College where he played soccer. Chris met the love of his life, Melissa Tucker and they married on August 17, 2007 and resided in O’Fallon, MO. Chris became a floor layer and was a member of the Floorlayers Local #1310.
Chris was a talented artist with a creative mind, a skillful soccer player, lover of animals, and an expert floor layer but above all he was a devoted husband and father. Chris had a diverse love for music, was adventurous, had a great sense of humor, loved to make others laugh and could make the best gooey butter cake. He was extremely proud of his family and loved them with his whole heart.
It truly would be an understatement to say he will be greatly missed. He will forever be in our hearts.
