Dear Laura, Michael, family, and friends.
We are very sorry to hear of the loss of Chris. There are several of us in IR who remember working elbow to elbow with him during cases. I remember him as an unflappable, congenial, and dedicated angiographer always prepared and always attentive to detail. If he was that way at work, I can only imagine what he was like at home in your family, and what a hole his passing leaves in your lives.
With our prayers, condolences, and best wishes for consolation,
David Williams and IR colleagues from the University of Michigan
