Other than the bow, I have a Doug Campbell knife I recieved from his Dad after his passing of Chris's, also a arrow that I won on the St Jude auction. Sadly I never was able to shake his hand, but feel as I had a friend in him from the few times we talked. His dad
Larry made me a armguard from a Alligator he and Chris had gotten. It will be one of the treasured things in years to come that will be handed to my son along with the meaning of it.

Chris was a great friend and human!  I miss him everyday.  I've gotten several things to remember him by and cherish them very much.
I am also lucky enough to count his dad, Larry, and his family, kelsey, Christopher and Justin, as my dear friends.

Hey. Do you think she's excited! Very cool. You know what else is cool? That fourtrax from the 80's in the back ground. Not only do you not see those any more but wow that's in feat condition!

Matty,
Good call on the Fourtrax. 87' model I bought new. In excellent condition, only thing I have had to replace is the battery. Still has the original tires on it.

Thanks for brining up the good memories for me to enjoy again.

Chris was definitely a Good one, I carry a quiver of his to the woods with me on all my hunts to remmeber the Man who was eager to give more than he received.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Curt, Jag and Charlie,
I am sure he is looking down thinking its pretty dang cool that folks are using his stuff honoring him. That's  got to be a great feeling if possible to know that's a big part of his legacy still going strong. I pray often his kids are well and stable in their lives.
