Chris loved the outdoors and spent any time he could hunting or fishing. His stories of hunts and other adventures filled the room at family gatherings, as he loved to tell others about his experiences. When he wasn't in the outdoors, he was more than likely at a ballpark or a gym, as watching his children play sports was one of the most important parts of his life and something he took great pride in. Visitation will be 1 to 2 p.m., Wednesday, October 28, at Ashby Funeral Home in Benton, Ark., with memorial services beginning at 2 p.m. Bro. Noah Hill will be officiating.
