All honor to his name.

We are so sorry for your loss. Our deepest and sincerest condolences to Jean and all of your family. With prayers that the Lord will give you peace and comfort you at your time of loss.

Jean my sincerest condolences to you and your family.Chris and I shared many great conversations and laughter in the last 40 years.Just a wonderful man with a great personality,and sooooo proud of his family.RIP my friend!!!!

Chris was my "go to guy" for tires, alignment, etc. for many years! Jean ... oh my goodness how you helped me with condo rentals and purchase during a difficult time in my life ... I still recall that my friend in sports officiating, ODIE was a teammate of yours in college! God bless all of your family!!

Chris was a great guy with a great sense of humor, did business with him for many years always a straight shooter.

Very sad news. Chris was a great guy. I have known him ever since we moved here in the late 1980's. I was a regular at Tire Town. He was always friendly, very helpful, and also had a terrific sense of humor. With Chris being a Yankee's fan and all, I will miss his harassment (since I am a Red Sox fan.
I hope that Chris's family can get through this difficult time.

No matter if he thought you a fool or a friend, you could trust him through and through, and you innately knew it. My heart goes out to the Yonkins for what must be a staggering loss.

My sincere condolances to the Yonkin family. Chris was my fraternity brother, teammate and friend. I have wonderful memories of all our great times we had. Chris was the best. Sincere thoughts and prayers.

Chris was one of the best men I ever knew. He was smart, tough, and loyal. Somewhere in there I also knew him to be loving and kind. He must have been - he managed to keep Jean for 40+ years and raise 3 daughters. I was proud that he was my friend, and will never tire of telling my daughter and friends how good it was to be his. Jean and John - all our best and hope to see you soon - Luke & Joyce.
