Once he achieved that, he moved on to the ����ɫ�� and was accepted into the mechanical engineering program.

He worked for ATCO Structures and Logistics, Ellis Don, and Tsuut’ina Public Works. CJ had a passion for hockey and was a very accomplished player. He had played hockey for many years where he made a lot of friends who would eventually become like family. He excelled in other sports, but hockey was always number one. He was an avid Calgary Flames fan. He also enjoyed bike riding, as it gave him the freedom to travel anywhere.

CJ was a humble and kind man who would give you the shirt off his back. CJ was punctual, hardworking, and goal driven. He loved to visit and be surrounded by his family and friends. He had a special place in his heart for his nieces and nephews who brought him so much joy. CJ loved the hugs, kisses, and smiles they lovingly gave him.
