My sincere condolences to all the Chris's family.
My name 's Daniel and i use to work with Chris in Kodak.Industries at Chalon sur saône, when he came to train our team (CTP Ciné).

But i also spend time at Rochester in the Eastman Kodak factory for my personal training with Kyle.

During these moments actually I really understood what was the Dick Selling team with all that very good guys (these one knows who they are : Dick, Chris,Charlie, kyle, Mitch, karen etc...)

I spent time with Chris, he was a lovely, patient and human man.
I still miss his laugh, he was so happy at that time and everybody loved him.
Particularly love for Tess and Adam.
You're all still in my mind.
Sorry for my english.
Congratulations

I hope you can take comfort knowing we never lose anyone. We know were they are. Chris was a great guy! I remember when we went to a Redwings game at the suite. It was great. Remember the good times.

So sorry,

Nancy - Chris was a bright spot in many a trying day during the time we worked together at Kodak. After retirement, I looked forward to seeing Chris when he came to golf at Brook-Lea for Interclub. He always hand a warm smile, strong handshake, and a way of making me feel special. Chris was a positive influence on those around him. He will be missed.

I am at a loss for words. Chris and I were colleagues at Kodak for more than 10 years. We were technical contributors and fortunate to travel on many occasions. Chris was a bright technical scientist who knew the motion picture applications and customer base. I enjoyed working with Chris, and greatly appreciated his friendship over the years.
He loved his kids and always talked about what they were doing.
My prayers and sincere condolence go out to his fiancée, Nancy, his kids and all his family.

Adam and Tess, I am so very sad for your loss. Your Father was a few years ahead of me at RIT and I am proud to call him my Phi Tau brother. He was what I hope my sons become. He was so smart, athletic, personable and caring. He helped me get through chemistry and physics. I will forever be grateful that I was able to spend some time with him at our PKT reunion. He was truly one of the good guys in my life. God bless you both.

It saddens me to hear of Chris' passing. I just saw him this past April at the Phi Kappa Tau 50th Anniversary celebration. He was as he always was happy, so easy going, a pleasure to be around. Chris was an outstanding leader in the fraternity, I will remember him fondly. My condolences to his family.

I want to offer my sympathies to Chris' family and
to Nancy. I worked with Chris in EI and enjoyed our many talks on the New York Giants especially when they won the Super Bowl. My thoughts are with you at this difficult time.

Last time I saw Chris was at the MI Army Officer Basic Course at Ft Huachuca in 1984. We had lunch at the old Officer Club up by the mountains. He was on his way out, and I was just coming in. It was fun seeing someone from Charles O Dickerson High School, T-burg a couple of thousand miles away. -Steve, Camp Arijan, Kuwait

Chris enrolled at RIT in the Fall of 1976 as a Photographic Science major. Chris was very intelligent and was able to excel in academics while leading a very outgoing and contagious social life. He joined the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity and was one of the most active members in chapter history. Chris was a natural athlete who led the fraternity to multiple sports championships. He was a natural leader who became president. He was a mentor, a great friend, a mischief mate, a confidant, a success, and a leader who was both humble and energetic. His greatest role was recruitment. While he was never officially responsible Chris was instrumental in the decision of many brothers to join the fraternity due to his friendliness, easygoing manner and quick wit. He will be sorely missed.

To Chris' family, especially his children and Nancy, I want to express my deep condolences on the sudden loss of Chris. I knew him for 40 years, having gone to college with him at RIT in the Photo Science program and later working with him at Kodak.

He was a very good person, considerate of others and always well intentioned. How we treat others is always a good insight into a person's character, and Chris was among the best.

We had many fun and crazy adventures together while at college, and it always makes me laugh when I think about those times.

I greatly enjoyed working with him as well as he was a talented and highly intelligent person. He was also a skilled manager of people, and a person that you could count on when things got tough.

The loss of a loved one is so difficult, but remember to celebrate Chris' life while you are mourning his loss. I will remember him fondly, and I wish all of you peace.

Chris,
Donna and I are very glad we met you and got to know you. It is difficult to put into perspective why things happen the way they do. We all have a plan layed out for us and the journey getting there is unknown. You seemed to have made the very best of it and have left this earth having made a significant impact on many. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to be part of your life. RIP!
