Christopher Craig Fry, 27, was born on February 18, 1988. He passed away on Wednesday, June 24, 2015. He was a loving and very outgoing man. He would always go above and beyond and an extra two miles to help anybody in need. This man was known for being a fantastic Son, Brother, Father and Grandson. He was always a huge risk taker, thrill seeker and lived each and everyday to the fullest. Serving in Iraq, he was a member of the U.S. Army. He was a member of the Hartford Fire Department and previously a member of the Keeler Fire Department. He was a certified commercial diver and dive medic. Chris also worked for Renacance Gym and A.E.P. (American Electric Power). Another thing about this young man is he was definitely a people person, reeling 'em in with that smile of his. He was so confident and sure of himself, he made us all proud. He was the real American hero. He will never be forgotten and be dearly missed.
