Not sure what to say?

I was on FB Peary High site and saw this. Shocked and saddened by this news. Please let his family know that I will keep them in my thoughts and prayers. Chris and I experienced many aspects of growing up together. He surely will be missed by many. My email [email protected] I lost my husband five years ago - if you ever need to talk.

God's peace to your family. What an incredible shock. Chris & I were 'besties' in high school. My porch was his therapy room :)A talented, very nice person. He was 'magic'.

A wonderful, positive friend & co-worker, memories to be enjoyed, presence to be missed, especially by his family. Chris knew Christ and I am thankful for that.

YOU WERE SUCH A GREAT PERSON SO FULL OF JOY SO GLAD I HAD THE CHANCE OF MEETING YOU AND WORKING WITH YOU!

The light that Chris gave will live on in all of us that were lucky enough to come in contact with him.

The loss of Chris is such a shock--what an extraordinary person he has been to his UPS community of customers. He welcomed us all so enthusiastically. He would always ask about my daughter, Kelly, and I could tell how proud he was of his children. His good spirits were contagious! I hope his family can take comfort in how much he has meant to all he came in contact with. His many kindnesses is a precious legacy we can all keep of his life so well-lived.

So so sorry for your loss. Chris was always bright & cheerful whenever anyone came into the store or talked with him at a meeting. He cared deeply about his family and the community. His warm smile and positive attitude will be greatly missed.

Chris was kindness incarnate . .

A ray of pure light . . To encounter Chris, however momentarily, was to be blessed . .
