The memorial...

   By establishing this scholarship in his memory, his family hopes to further that same creative spark in other students that was so much a part of Chris. He was well known for his love of friends, reading, music, writing and was also a member of a band for which he wrote music and lyrics.

   In October of his senior year at Inglemoor, Chris was fatally struck by a car while in the crosswalk of a busy local street.
