He's a cancer survivor who wants to help others.THE COLONY, Texas — On Halloween in North Texas, you can find plenty of ghosts and goblins in front yards. As trick-or-treaters made their way around one particular neighborhood, some were caught off guard by quite the fright with a special message behind it.
For years, the Gamell family has been decorating for Halloween. Each year, the decorations get bigger and bigger with scary clowns, fog machines, and 16-foot monsters.“What we have out here is a person who is obsessed with Halloween and lucky that his wife is still with him,” said Chris Gamell, a resident in The Colony.
With more than 80 hours of labor and 200 props, it is the gratitude for Chris and Cher Gamell that pushes the fright to the top. “Every night, 200 to 250 cars go by," Chris Gamell said."People come thanking us for what we do. It makes me want to do more.”“My journey was tough, but here I am cancer-free 18 months,” Chris Gamell said. “When you get blessed with something special like that go ahead and do something like this. Raise money for others. Help people.”“That feeling of giving warms your heart,” Chris Gamell said. “The more you can give, the happier you are. Nobody can challenge that.
