I was an employee of Christopher's. I didn't know him beyond work, but I remember him as being very casual and likeable. I also have suffered a loss of my daughter on March 24th, 2017. I understand how important it is to be remembered. I hope Christopher's family is able to remember him and all he brought to them. Remember the good times and the person he was. I am still learning how to deal with the loss but it does get a little easier if you can just focus on the joy and happiness a loved one has brought to you. Peace be with you.

I am so sorry to hear this news. Chris hired me at ValueCentric. He was the only one that gave me a chance. I've moved on from Valuecentric, but I always felt a connection to Chris. I didn't know him beyond work, but I just always sensed he was the kind of guy that was a team player, a fun person, a sincere person. I'm really sadden and I wish his family well.
