As Chris started to grow into a young man, he enjoyed building model cars and planes, golfing with his dad on weekends and making new friends when he moved to Stettler, Chris also learned A LOT about responsibility. Chris played hockey for a season on a Stettler team. He enjoyed a big campfire and a party with friends. Throughout Chris' life he enjoyed all animals, especially dogs.
