Christopher Michael Bauer was a wonderful dad and always put the needs of others above his own. He cared for his children dearly and they will miss him very much. He was a mountain man, he liked doing things like hunting, fishing and being able to live off the land. He had a truck that he would drive on his fishing trips that he would brag about the mess of fish he would bring back home. Chris loved making knives out of deer horns and being able to use what he killed to be able to thrive. Christopher loved spending time with his family and going above and beyond to help his mom do daily chores around her home on the farm and he loved his stepdad Jim dearly. Most of all he was a caring man who will be forever missed. May he rest in heavenly peace.
