This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Christopher Knutson, 35, born on September 24, 1978 and passed away on April 7, 2014. We will remember him forever.
Chris was many things and all of them were good, he worked hard at every job he had and put in his time and dedication. He was the the consummate caregiver, taking care of his mom, stepping up to be an amazing father figure for his niece Fiyona, supportive brother and an amazing husband. Chris loved to travel and see new places, over the past two years he took a cruise through the Caribbean, took Fiyona to Disney World, and went to Mexico. He was a very blunt and upfront person with a very dry sense of humor and always came up with the perfect quips just at the right time. Chris loved Dolly Parton and had listened to all her songs and would record anything she was in that played on TV. After his diagnosis Chris become very active in ALS research and education, constantly emailing companies, government officials, and getting into any trial or study he could. He always put others before him constantly making sure his mom was cared for, making sure Fiyona had every opportunity available to her, and even fought hard during times of illness to make sure that Fiyona and John were settled into their new home and everything was in order.
Please share your comments your stories and your memories of Chris.
