Christopher Daniel Raff was born to loving parents Bryce and Danny Raff on May 3, 1980. As a child, he always wanted to be a cartoonist and enjoyed art, basketball, rollerblading, hockey, motorcycling, riding bikes, snowboarding, building things and being creative. He graduated from Grand Junction High School in 1998. Chris lost a dear friend to a hate crime and was always passionate about fighting racial hate. He met the love of his life, Starlyn Tate and together they welcomed their son on April 22, 2007. Chris was a devoted father. He was an artist, a poet, an athlete, a lover of books and novels. He had a heart for God and a deep calling to discover and connect to the Divine. He was friendly, loyal, compassionate and had a soaring intellect. He remained true to his artistic talents and created art throughout his life. He was also a musician who performed under the name TUI at various local venues and his music can be found online.  

 

Chris is survived by his son Logan Eric Raff, Logan's mother Starlyn Tate, his parents Bryce and Danny Raff, his brother Benjamin Raff, his sister Domenica Steele, and many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles and friends. He will be dearly missed by those who loved him.
