Life story

" Chris was highly intelligent, and he excelled in both writing and math abilities. From an early age he built his own computers and enjoyed all things tech. He enjoyed music and loved curating playlists. He had a passion for PvP and RPG online games. He enjoyed movies, especially fiction, fantasy and science fiction. He loved our dogs, picked out Jazzy from the litter, and held our little Zoey, a rescue dog, to help her transition from living on the streets of LA to being a family member in our home. He took special care of our dogs. He loved to cook healthy foods for the family and even made gourmet meals for the dog. He enjoyed athletics. He mastered Shaolin style Kung Fu and practiced it throughout his life. He became a runner in his twenties. He loved problem solving and was the solution-maker who could trouble-shoot any issue.

Chris was born on Christmas Eve 1989 in Burnsville, Minnesota and passed away September 20, 2022, in Richmond, Virginia. Chris is survived by his mom and dad, Becky and Paul Pfau of Stafford, Virginia, and his sister, Elise Pfau of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
