Appearances
He and Mary Jane Baker were part of the same congregation.
They married when Chris was only 19 and Mary Jane was 25.
Her dress was beautiful and you could tell she was just happy.
Mary Jane's sister, Penny Doopey, says Chris was a real-life Prince Charming.
He made other wives jealous because Chris did all of those things that a husband is supposed to do, buy you roses, take you on trips.
Most of all, Mary Jane wanted children, so she was thrilled to become a full-time mom when Zachary, Sadie, and Madison came along.
Each arrived little more than a year after the baby before.
What was Chris like as a father?
I always thought he was a great father.
At age 22, Chris Longo took a job with a company that distributes the New York Times here in Ypsilanti.
Longo would later tell Finkel that he envied the writer's worldwide adventures.
You did!
Longo's own life was far less exotic.
At age 25, he quit his job to start up Final Touch, a cleaning company for contractors.
I thought everything he was doing, he was doing for his family, and he wanted good things for them.
And Penny says the Longos had a lot of good things.
I was wondering about the vacations that they took.
They were always driving brand-new cars.
Either somebody's helping them, thinking Chris's parents, or they are majorly in debt.
Penny's suspicions were right.
