Christopher Wagster
Christopher was born August 25, 1979 in New Haven, Connecticut. When he was 15 months old, his father died after a long illness. The family, including his mother and older sister, moved to Nashville, Tennessee so his mother could finish college. Chris was never one to embrace moving and change. Upon his mom’s graduation, the family became a military family, moving to Jacksonville, Arkansas. Chris lived in Burkburnett, Texas when he attended Space Camp in 1989. The family moved to Anchorage, Alaska and then to Las Vegas, Nevada. Chris graduated from Cheyenne High School in 1997 with high honors, and he was awarded the United States Air Force Math and Science award along with other state and national honors. Initially, college was not an interest. But after years of working in the world of computer science, for Verizon and CDK Global, he graduated from Western Governors’ University with a Bachelor of Science in April 2021. Christopher died of unknown causes in July 2021.
