Dear Mandy and Family,
I will, forever, remember Chris' smiling, happy face and his love
of playing on-set practical jokes.
My deepest sympathies goes out to you, Mandy, Kate and the rest of your family. The love for Chris
at his memorial was extremely touching and wonderful that will always be etched in my soul.

Hi Mandy & Kate.. Just wanted to let you know that I was so sorry not to attend on Sat. My Mom had to be taken in to hospital so I was not available. But my heart was with both of you... xo

We did not know Chris well even though we live only a few houses east. What we do remember is his welcoming smile and variety of props at Halloween. We are thinking of you at this time.

Mandy & Family -
I'll say it again both to you Mandy and the rest of Chris' family - I am so very sad that you all have to experience this untimely and very tragic loss of this special person.
He lit up a lot of lives. Though he be gone, may the light shine on.

To all the family and friends of Chris, please accept my deepest sympathy on his loss. Although I hadn’t seen as much of him in the last decade or so, as I did in previous years, I will miss him.
The Chris I knew had a marvelously generous heart. He displayed compassion and consideration for others in his actions. He presented an easy grace, which was often belied by an endearing, oddly self-deprecating sense of humor.
He was as low on pretense as anyone I have known. He was genuine, and I loved him.

To the family and friends of Chris.
Chris was gaffer on several New Line Cinema shows and I always found him to be of great support to me. I'm a studio safety person and sometimes am faced with crew members that are reluctant to follow the safety rules. Chris was always supportive of me doing my job and was the first to correct any safety concerns on the set; regardless if it were his department or not. He was a happy guy and I enjoyed talking to him while visiting the sets. He will be missed by the studios.
Sincerely,
Janine Skorupa

I found out from Marylou Flood only this morning. As a long time neighbour I remember Chris out back creating elaborate scenes with his GI Joe characters, perhaps foreshadowing his talented career in film! My deepest sympathy for your loss.

You get to work with all kinds of people in show business. You are closer to some than to others and often long periods of time go by before you see them again. But I've always felt welcome on sets and most at home when I find a friendly face from the past. I have worked with "Howie" off and on since ENG days. That cast and crew always seemed like family to me, the people who knew me when I was starting out. I can't spare any of them. So, Howie, if you're listening, I miss you. You made a difference to me and I'm glad I knew you.

Dear Mandy,
My heart goes out to you and Kate. What a tremendous loss for you both, and all who knew him. And what a tragedy that such an exceptional individual was lost in his prime. However everyone is richer for having known him. May his legacy live on in his family and friends.
Sincerely,

Mandy and Kate,
I can't imagine the anguish you two must be going through during these very difficult times. Keep the warm memories of Chris dear to your heart and time will heal. Know that he was dearly loved by many and you have family and friends to always support and comfort you both.

Chris had a way of making you never forget him. His smile was endless. I will never forget the many times we would stop and talk at the film studios parking lot. He always gave me an update on how his family was . His love for Mandy and Kate was something that just beamed out of him....His life was everything with them in it....A proud father and very much in love husband....God bless you dear friend ...light on. You will be forever with us.....
