My condolences on the loss of Chris. I hadn't seen Chris in many years but have fond memories of our time together. Chris was my best man on Jan 31st 1975 when Pam and I were married. After a few years Chris and I lost track of one another but I always remembered his smile, charm, and sense of humor. May God be with you during this time.
