Chris was born Sept. 1, 1984, in Ames. He loved music, warm pools vigorous play and the affection of family and friends.

He handled his lifelong, severe disabilities and health conditions with a quiet, cheerful spirit that refreshed our hearts. He was favored by God with the expert attention of doctors, caregivers and teachers in Ames, Iowa City, Johnston and Nevada. He challenged individuals and institutions in his community to be more sensitive, flexible and inclusive. Many speak of his positive influence.

He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Richard Hoyt; and one uncle, Michael Hoyt.

Memorials, in lieu of flowers, may be directed to Rolling Green Nursing Home in Nevada.
