Expenses for Chris Pelkey
Donation protected
Our brother Christopher Pelkey, Army veteran who served 3 tours in the Middle East, died Saturday 11/13/21 in Chandler, Arizona. He was the victim of a road rage shooting while on his way home from a church softball game. The news report can be found here. Chris was a very humble man who charitably gave away more than he had. As his family, we are trying to pick up the pieces to take care of his expenses. If you would be willing to help us/our brother who gave so much, it would honor his legacy of selflessness and charity.

UPDATE 11/16/2021
==============
Due to overwhelming response and outpouring of love for Chris around the country, we are holding 2 services for Chris so that all who loved him — on both coasts — can say goodbye to our beloved brother.
Services for my brother Chris will be held on Saturday 11/20/2021 at 2 pm at The Grove church in Chandler, Arizona. ALL are welcome. It will be a Celebration of Life with a short service and then light refreshments and slideshows and fellowship.
-AND-
We will also be holding a second service on Saturday December 4th at my brother John’s church, Kirkland Life Church at 44 Kirkland Ave, Clinton, NY.
All are welcome.
His cremains will be interred amongst a family plot on December 7th (his birthday) at Poughkeepsie Rural Cemetery in New York.
He was too impactful to limit his services to just one coast. If either of those locations work for you, we would love to see you.
