Chris's star burned brightly, and burned itself out far too soon. He was loved and will be missed.

This is Chris paddling out to surf off Diamond Head.  We had just returned from a weekend hiking the Kalalau Trail on Kauai, and woke up early to watch him surf.  Later that afternoon there was a spectaular rainbow over Diamond Head, all in all one of our all time favorite days.

We welcome you to share your thoughts and memories of Chris in our guestbook.

Please feel free to send us pictures, poems, and other items celebrating Chris's life, we will be updating this site over the next few weeks.
