Hi, my name is Brian, & Covid-19 just took my little brother Chris Engelman away from the people who loved him.
He leaves behind his courageous wife Brenda, & their wonderful 8 year-old daughter Elizabeth.

Aside from the obvious spiritual & emotional pain, there is now an urgent financial need to help the family he can no longer provide for.

 

Chris was a patient & thoughtful communicator, & a friend to all.
He was a talented athlete, gifted musician, & a deep thinking philosopher who cared tremendously about making this planet a better place for all of us.

Christopher had an impeccable sense of humor & comedic timing.
He was a fantastic researcher, a brilliant writer, & a creative spirit.
He was the modern definition of a Renaissance man.
The world is truly a lesser place today without him.  :-(

 

Chris poured his passion for wine into becoming a certified sommelier.
He excelled in his career because he absolutely loved sharing that knowledge for wine every chance he got.

 

As a father, he was a loving, caring & playful mentor, while remaining a blend of teacher & friend to Ellie.

Chris would want nothing more than to see his family helped during his absence.

Thank you.
