He was born November 17, 1972 in Rockville CT, the son of Glenn W. & Beverly (Kistler) Scheffler. He graduated from Tolland High School (class of '91).

Christopher was employed for over 26 years at UPS starting as a pre-loader, moving up the ranks to a driver & then as an on car Supervisor.
He was an avid NASCAR fan. Just loving the sport, his favorite driver was Dale, JR driving the #88. He followed all New England teams: Boson Red Sox, New England Patriots, Boston Bruins & the throwback Hartford Whalers. He had a passion for music, taught himself to play the guitar. Loved to "air drum" & took any opportunity to sing karaoke, noting each artist & song title. Quoting movie lines was another trait he had. Pinochle was a favorite card game. He loved to take vacations, any place near the ocean whether it was to Maine, Cape Cod, an island or on a cruise. Enjoying the time with his wife & trying to find the "STOP" button.
