Lonnie and I express our condolences to Ulrike, CJ and Caroline. Chris was a dear friend and I will miss him. What a battle he fought to regain his health and enjoy his family. Our friendship started when he was TA Counsel and I was IRS Deputy Commissioner. It continued when I joined the Tax Analyst Board of Directors. Chris provided the leadership to make TA grow leaps and bounds. God Bless Chris Bergin. Mike Murphy
