Chris Battaglia was a dedicated Rink Zamboni Driver at Glacier Ice Arena, known for his unwavering commitment to making the best ice for everyone who came through the doors. He took immense pride in his work, always going the extra mile to ensure the ice was perfect for skaters and hockey players alike. Chris’s love for hockey, especially the Chicago Blackhawks, was well known, and his passion brought energy and warmth to the rink. Customers and coworkers alike recognized that Chris cared deeply about the quality of the ice and the experience of everyone who visited. His attention to detail and friendly nature made him a beloved member of the Glacier Ice Arena family.

Chris was not only a valued employee, but also a devoted father, a true hockey fan, and a friend to everyone he met. His sudden passing has left a void in the community and in the lives of those who knew him. Chris’s son, James, who is 18, is now living with Chris’s brother as he navigates this difficult time.

We are raising funds to help cover funeral expenses and to support James as he adjusts to this new chapter. Any support from the Glacier Ice Arena community and friends of Chris will make a meaningful difference. Thank you for honoring Chris’s memory and for helping his family during this time of need.
