Chris was born in Plymouth on December 03, 1952. He moved to Canada with his family and attended high school at Norkam, where he made lifelong friends. Chris and his wife Lynda travelled extensively for a few years before returning to Kamloops. He was actively involved in the construction industry for years. Chris built the family cabin at Shuswap Lake with the help of his wife, kids and in-laws Ruth and Peter. Spending time at ‘the lake’ with family and friends was universally known to be his favourite thing to do.
