Christian (Cpl Holtorf) – you will be missed. Your ability to say yes to the Canadian Armed Forces adventure while maintaining a positive attitude was a remarkable attribute.
On behalf of Dr. Diduch and Callingwood Orthodontics, we would like to express our sincerest sympathy to Christian’s family and loved ones. Our thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
Christian, thank you for your friendship, comradery, loyalty, dedication, valor, bravery and service to Canada.
I will forever cherish the time we spent together on training exercises, domestic operations, recruiting, and community outreach events, like the Edmonton Expo and Santa’s Anonymous.
You will forever be in our hearts and we will miss you the next time the unit goes for drinks, pizza, and playing pool at the Junior Ranks mess. Thanks for the memories. VVV
I am sorry that I could not muster the strength to stand up and talk about Christian during the service. All that I can say now, is that I was so thankful for the time that I had with Christian. I taught him on his DP 1 and after that he went through some hard times. I had his back through all of it. When he came to me, I listened to him with kindness, I responded to him with love and grace. He also gave me grace on the times that I failed. I loved him and I will miss him dearly. He will always be in my thoughts.
I am proud to have worked with Christian and always knew he was dependable. He always came to work with a smile and always knew just what to say to brighten the room. Christian made a profound impact on those that knew him. I wish his mother, father, sister, and grandparents well. Christian will live forever in the hearts of those that knew him.
Proud to have worked with Christian, during an Army task he asked if he could given permission to return up north to help personally with the forest fires. He was energetic and down to earth, where ever he is I pray he knows he is, he was and will always be loved by his family, friends and colleagues.
Christian was full of energy and a pleasure to be around, he will be sorely missed.
