mike, i live next door to jen. i know my brothers sometimes get o your nervse just as they get on mine. but when i babysat for them i cherished chrises live as my own, i never did see him as a different man, out of the weelchair, but i alwase new he was just like you inside.
This is an update for everyone. My brother Chris, who is in this video, passed away on October 16, 2009..just over 2 years after the recording of this video...this moment will be cherished forever and my most sincere thanks goes out to everyone who made this memory happen....thank you...Mike
This is Chris, and I can't thank enough the people who made this surprise possible. First Tim Nelson who set this up and pushed me around the speedway, especially turn #1! Also to the A.L.S. chapter in N.C. And let's not forget Jeff for giving me some of his time. GO 24!
Chris is/ was my nephew. Please help fund ALS for a cure. Thank you.
