There’s a link for a gofundme in there as well. He has a wife and a young daughter.
I played against Chris for many years. He is one of the best I’ve ever played against. Was a huge part of the Callies AMSL dynasty, winning multiple national titles. I was lucky enough to play with him for Calgary United for a couple seasons as well where I got to know him pretty well. He is an absolute class act, and this is sad to see. One of the best players ever from Calgary, and a really good person. |
Oh man, I’m sorry Greg. Send my love.
