Christopher Thomas McDowell

Chris was born to a couple who, at best, pretended very hard to Love one another, and at worst, hated each other with greater passion! He endured through out his parents, sometimes violent, oft times negligent, divorce, while at the same time, aiding his younger sister in surviving the separation from thier loving, sometimes overly indulgent, father, while forced to continue to live with thier "somewhat less than attentive", mother. ADHD, at times, ruled his actions beyond his control, but never his mind or his soul! He is bestowed wth a mind capable of great genius and a heart and soul spilling over with indescribable passion and a limitless compassion for all beings set on this earth by God, and understood only BY God! Chris is always reaching for lofty goals he sets for himself, always just beyond his grasp, without great self-sacriface, and yet he will bend to help others stand in the spotlight of recognition just before himself, always recognized, but seldom heralded for his unselfish deeds!
I recognize greatness in Chris' future, just as some recognized greatness in John F. Kennedy, even before he piloted PT109, or was elected President! And many saw greatness and fabulous wealth in the life of a young Bill Gates, long before there was a Microsoft!
I see these things in the future life of Christopher Thomas McDowell and hold myself in awe of him and his accomplishments, past and future. For I am his Dad, and he is my HERO!
