Chris Tikonoff - A47620

[#50]

The rifle volley send off was touching and pointed. I'd not seen anything like it ever before. We had about seven shooters ranging in age from 15 to over 50, each firing one round in unison upon command. It was also great that we had a wide variety rifles - an 03', two M1s, and several AR variants. Chris was into older rifles (C&R license holder) so it seemed appropriate.

My thanks to the Harvard match officials for letting us do this send off for Chris.

Ladies and gentlemen:

Anyone who knew Chris is welcome to join his friends and family for his visiting hours and services.

If you have any questions, please forward them to me and I will answer them to the best of my ability.

Below is the snipped message from his wife, Carine.

It would mean the world if there was a large turnout if anyone can make it.

Thanks,

Greg Gilman
