"Always Be Helping"

Those 3 words are on the front page of Chris Hoch's personal website. Those words tell you a little of who Chris was. 

On June 29th, Chris passed away. Chris was one of the finest men I've known. A wonderful Father and Husband. Someone who was always ready to lend a hand to someone less fortunate than he was. He was a dreamer, an incredibly hard worker and after you walked away from a conversation with Chris, you felt better about yourself and the world. 

Chris left his wife, Lisa and their daughter Amelia. Chris had been through some hard times over the last few years and his passing left Lisa and Amelia in a very hard situation. As most of us know, when you lose someone very close to you, it takes a while for the emotion and pain to subside enough to where you start to look at the reality of your situation. And the reality of this situation is that Lisa and Amelia could use our help. 

As his friends and co-workers, we are starting this page in hopes of doing what we can to help Lisa and Amelia. All funds secured through this site will go directly to Lisa to be used as she sees fit. 

If you knew Chris, if you were touched by him in the past, or if you just have a desire to help out a mother and daughter who haven't asked for anything, but can use our help, we hope you will contribute. Small or large, anything will help. 

We miss you Chris. We know where you are now. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for giving yourself to us in the past. 

Your friends.
