Not sure what to say?

I remember many times of being crowded about 8 or 10 people in Chris and Larry's room in Plantz Hall, Room 101. What fun we had, and how amazing that we all managed to make it on to sophomore year. Ruu-tian, the boys and Chris'family are in my thoughts and prayers.

I just want to say to Ruu-Tian, Sam & Peter and the rest of his family that I am so, so sorry that this happened. I have so many memories of Chris over the years that I can not begin to recount them. I always enjoyed his company. It was a good time whenever Chris was around. It's a terrible loss for all his family and friends.

Chris was the first person I met as a Freshman at Lawrence University. He was in the room next to me in Plantz hall during our first term and became my roommate second and third term. I'll always remember him for his love of drums, ping pong and a fantastic sense of humor.

Chris and I were fellow residents at Plantz our freshman year and became friends. I spent summers in the Twin Cities during the middle 70's, and we spent many warm nights together, hanging out or at the golf course where he worked. I was so deeply saddened to read the Lawrence Alum magazine today to learn that Chris had passed away; I feel like part of me had gone with him. A few years ago, out of no where, an email arrived at my office from Chris, reaching out from our past. What a class...

Chris "gurkma" was a good friend and calculus (yuck!) study partner during freshman year at Lawrence U. Probably ate three meals a day together at Downer diner. Quiet, but funny. I will miss his presence on earth.

Chris was a wonderful guy & great classmate at West High School. He made it here to Minneapolis for our 30th reunion in August 2002, and seemed to really enjoy re-connecting with many of his classmates. We'll miss him!

My dear ex, Roxanne, alerted me today to this loss. I certainly never expected to outlive him, so vital and strong in body and mind.
To Van, his widow and children, to all his siblings, my wish for sweet memories that only sweeten over time.
