Read MoreI just found a picture of Chris, who I haven’t seen since the 70’s. I’m so sorry to hear that he is not making people laugh anymore. I have great memories of him. Thanks, Chris, for making me laugh when we worked at Carpetland! I love you!

My Deepest Sympathy to Chris' Family. I met them all when I worked with Kathy at Warner Lambert. He always seemed to have a smile on his face when I seen him. To his family, remember the good times, I am truly sorry for your loss...

I attended Rockford East and played football with Chris. His quote through the season-"All I do is punt". East's offense wasn't so dynamic in 1967 scoring all of 110 points or so but our defense only yielded 63. But we did manage to keep fans sitting on pins and needles in the seats until the outcome of the game was confirmed. 3 way tie between East, Boylan, and Guilford. Great person with a great sense of humor. RIP Chris

I spoke with Cris last Tuesday. He shared that it was his last day of work as he decided to retire. He shared that there was a retirement party at Stone Eagle on Wednesday.
We spoke about his plans for the future . One month off no option!
We are deeply saddened to learn of his passing. He was truly a kind, considerate friend.
Our hearts and condolences go out to his family and mutual friends.

I only met Chris Plager a couple of times and it was usually at a funeral. It turned out we had a mutual friend and shared many stories. I saw him a few weeks ago with Gary and Barb Blascoe having dinner. He was a nice guy and funny and easy to talk with. It was like we had known each other all our lives.
My condolences to his family and friends. The world got a little smaller with his death, our loss was Heaven's gain.

We were friends and teammates at REHS.
Many many good times with Chris.
I'll miss not seeing him again.
To his family, I am so sorry to hear of his passing.
