Photos by Christopher Rabuck

This page is dedicated to the memory of Christopher Rabuck, who took many of the photos found on this page. Christopher was a huge fan of all things Janesville, especially Riverside Park. He was an integral member of the Friends of Riverside Park and spent countless hours photographing life in the park on a near-daily basis.

Tragically, it was during one of these outings on Nov. 10, 2016 that Christopher was hit and killed by an alleged drunk driver. The Friends of Riverside Park are shocked and saddened by this loss, and have dedicated this page to his beautiful photography. May Christopher’s spirit live on eternally through his gift for photography.
