Christopher Lane “Chris” Batcheler
Born August 11, 1964, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, to Charles and Patricia Batcheler, Chris was a devoted husband, father, and son. He ran a family landscaping company with his father before starting his own, and later worked as a sales manager for a national turf company.
Chris was known for his heart of gold, quick wit, and love of cooking, gardening, and grilling. He brought laughter and warmth to all who knew him.
