This is very sad news. Chris and I emailed each other recently and I was planning on visiting with him on my next trip to Columbus.

Will pray for his family.

This is very sad news! Our condolences to the family and friends. We pray for peace and comfort in this tragic time! He will be greatly missed!

Keeping the Faith!

I am lost. I much enjoyed Chris and spoke with him many times.  We have all certainly lost a great man and a friend. My prayers for his family.

Great man from the few exchanges we had on the Gang.  Praying for his family and all his friends!

Prayers and condolences from Nebraska.

Gods speed..

Prayers sent from the Ekstrom family, Todd

Shoud the TradGang family send an arrow into the New Year night sky in honor of Chris?  This is a tradition my family does to honor our lost loved ones.

Sad to hear. My condolences to the Surtees family.

Very tragic!!! The Surtees are great people who always gave to others. Rest in peace Chris.

This is sad news. i never knew Chris personally, but his family will be in our prayers.

My condolences and prayers go out to his family. Very sorry to read this.

A bad deal. He was taken too soon. Condolences to his family and friends.

I'm at a loss.  Chris is one of the great members here who helped out so many.  I was just finishing up a pair of knives for Chris and Larry.

My condolences and prayers go out to the family.

Just got the call from Rob and Vance...my heart is broken. I talked to him about a week ago trying to hook up for a hunt at the club we shared...we made tentative plans for after Christmas or at worst a hog hunt after the first of the year in his neck of the woods. How tentative is our time here.

Larry and family, I am holding you up in prayer. May His peace comfort you as I pray it will all of us while we suffer through this loss. You know that all you need to do is call should you need anything.

Cherish every moment gentlemen, make your peace with God and tell those you love how much you love them....for not one of us are guaranteed a tomorrow.

I'll be doing my best to focus on the fond memories of the camps we shared, his laughter and dry wit, and that mischievous twinkle he always had in his eyes. I know he touched many, many lives in the same positive fashion. Our world is a bit dimmer with his passing.

May God be with his Family and help them to cope.

He will be missed greatly. My prayers for him and his family.
