Chris was born April 1, 1987 in Charlotte, NC. Chris was a kind and caring man who never met a stranger. He had an infectious smile and eyes that would light up a room, the minute he walked in. He loved to fish, surfing, working on cars and motors. Chris will be remembered as a loving son, grandson, and brother.
Survivors include his mother, Sherry Kimball and husband Vance; three sisters, Shelby Hudson and husband Dylan, Kayla Ihlefield, and Carley Kimball; brothers, Jack Kimball and Charles Eudy; and his grandfather, Mike Millimaki.
He was preceded in death by his father, Richard Ihlefield; his grandmothers, Shirley Millimaki and Shirley Martin; and his grandfather, Larry Martin.
A private family celebration of his life will be held.
