Christian was a one of a kind person, he was strong willed, fearless and whole hearted.

Christian had a passion for anything with wheels as he was studying Automotive Technology at Franklin County Technical School. He always had a a list of ongoing projects from cars to trucks, four wheelers and dirt bikes, you name it and Christian eventually brought it home as a project. He could often be found practicing his wheelies or cruising around on one of his many motorcycles he had. Christian will forever be remembered as the phenomenal son, brother and grandson he was, but more importantly the type of friend he was.
