Christopher enjoyed hunting, fishing, and crabbing. He was called Rockfish by his maternal grandfather, PaPa who he adored. He had a dream to become a Captain of his own fishing boat and do charters on the West Coast of Florida. He was an avid Tampa Bay Bucs Fan! Christopher always admired his big brother, Matthew and would say he hopes someday he could be successful and as good of a man as his brother. Christopher cherished the time with his two sons most of all, but his family was important to him. A life full of hopes and dreams cut far to short.
