RIP Chris you will be missed by everyone.
Chris taught me nearly everything i know within paintball. Always up for a laugh one of the best people i ever knew.

This is from Mathew Sables aswell who is not allowed on this forum, we started together and Chris was always there for us.

RIP xxx

Your post would have been a lot more respectful if you hadn't taken the opportunity to mention what you did.
This thread is about Chris and people taking the opportunity to pay their respects to his memory, it's not about you or your problems, there is absolutely NO justitifcation in using this thread to say what you did and says more about your character than people would wish to know on here.

It would seem as though Chris had a lot of friends and it's no accident people like him have this number of friends when you read just how he impressed and affected those people lucky enough to be around him.
I don't know the details of his death and don't need to, it's sad when one of us passes away especially when he is taken from us at such an untimely time in his life.

I don't think I ever met him but from what people are saying, he seemed one of the world's nice guys and all of us here at p8ntballer.com pay our due respects to his memory and his family.
It would also seem as though our sport has lost one its true gentlemen .... our paintball world is made to sit back for a few moments and really think about what's important in our lives, one of the most important being the friends we make as we go along.
It's obvious he has some genuine friends who hold him in genuine respect .... i just wish more people in paintball were like Chris .. Respect !!

After seeing some of the comments in this thread, I think it might be a good idea if we have a fund set up to raise money for his family. I don't know if he had any kids or anything about him but I do know this, when someone dies at this time in their lives ...... those left behind are sometimes exposed to real financial hardship ... Whoever knew Chris well, and I mean really well, can you please get in contact with me via a pm and we can arrange a fund appeal on p8nt to help out his family.
I'll kick it off with a bullseye .... if and when we do get the fund page set up, please give what you can afford, it's not exactly a bad cause guys ...
