Not sure what to say?

Chris and I were high school friends and teammates on the varsity basketball team in the late 60's at South Jefferson High School in Adams, NY. I had lost track of Chris after HS when I moved out of state. We had a great time together, and he was a super guy! God Bless to Chris and all of his family.

Dearest "Pinky" and family - I am so sorry to hear about your loss - I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers - Lisa Holmes Hayes

So very grateful to have spent great times together over the past 48 years. Golf, dinners, casual gatherings - a dear friendship with you and Cathy. Wish we had gotten to see you both more after moving to CT and wish you had gotten here to visit us. We will miss you Chris. Love to you, Cathy, Taylor and family. Brad and Donna

I treasure the time spent with Cathy and Chris. Chris had a witty sense of humor and I always enjoyed our talks. I am so fortunate to have them both as friends and I will miss Chris dearly. Cathy and family, my sincere condolences to you all on this great loss.

Chris became a first and fast friend at Star Light when we settled there in 2018. He was the man who walked the neighborhood and kept our needs and friendships in balance: always there to care. Rest in peace, dear friend. Bill and Mary

Chris became a close friend of myself and my family. Many visits to Cathy and Chris´s home always brought laughter and good fun. I gained a brother and a mentor in Chris and I will be forever grateful for all that he shared and taught me. I miss you immensely Christopher but I know you are watching over your family and dear friends. Forever in our hearts.

Chris was a great friend who went over and above for his family, friends and neighbors. He will be dearly missed.

Meeting Chris and being friends with him and Cathleen, will always be one of my greatest gifts of life.
