Not sure what to say?

Is this the Chris Haddon who founded The London Telephone Box Company? Certainly agree with the lovable rogue sentiments! He added much colour to an often grey world, and kept me on my toes business wise ever since my dealings with him in the 1980's. Happy our paths crossed when they did, and sad he has gone.

Dear Haddon..
I concur with all of the memories about you.
You were a totally lovely rogue.
I have happy memories.
So glad that u and Catherine shared the joy of parenthood.
Your love of life and your brain will be missed.
We lost contact but u are not forgotten

Chris and I were new boys together at West Acre and we spent lots of time together both at school and at his home. Although we lost contact I have never forgotten our friendship or the memories of all the scrapes we got into. Happy days!
Rest in peace.

Linda and I loved him like a big brother, Will forever miss. Much love to the kids and Catherine. Many memories of Tokyo, Oxford, and Key Largo.

I first met Chris when he arrived at Harrow as a 13 year old nearly 50 years ago. He was always cheerful and had a mischievous streak that added greatly to his charm.
I haven't seen him much in the intervening years but, when I did, he was always great fun with a new idea for a business and an amusing story to tell, often at his own expense. One of those rare people who brought a ray of sunshine wherever he went.
Rest in peace, Martin

Shared many memories with Christopher from the age of 14. A great fun and entertaining loveable rogue. Full of adventure. Always close to the big deal. And, by gum, you deserved it. Led me astray on many "Dregs" evenings.
Very sad to hear of your departure. A very great loss. He adored Jonte and Lara. He will be missed by many old OH friends who have scattered to all corners of the world. RIP.
Please make a special effort to attend his memorial.

Saw Chris often from aged 14 at Harrow to 30. Played football with him at the OHAFC. Was a good friend and fellow reprobate. Chris was a tireless entrepreneur and optimist. We will miss his sense of humor and appetite! RIP.
