Chris was a wonderful colleague and talented artist! He gave gifts of books and a beautiful Buddha statue to our chapel. My partner bought one of his paintings for me and I will think of him every time I see it. It is an amazing painting of leaves dancing in a circle. In the middle is Spirit and from this I know he touched the Spirit in his artwork and in himself and the world. What many gifts he has given! Blessings!

Very saddened to hear of Chris's passing. Chris was all heart and prided himself in his career by taking heartfelt care of all his patients. My condolences to his family and many friends.
Gone way too soon Chris, your light, love and memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew you. There's an emptiness in the neighborhood now beyond measure without you. May the angels comfort and take as good care of you as you gave to so many. May peace be yours Chris.

Chris was a great guy with a big heart. It was great fun with Chris listening to Tony Shea's stories about his Cape Cod office.
