My regrets go out to you at this time of sorrow. You are all in my prayers, although i did not know Christopher, i knew Noreen, who always spoke of the good times she had with him. May God take him into his home, and care for him, and take your family under his arm, and watch out for you. For Noreen, just know that i will always be here for you, u know the number just call when you need someone to talk to. My ears are always open....

I am so at a loss for words over the sudden death of Chris.



He and I sang together in the Emmanuel College Chapel Choir. He was always smiling and we had many wonderful conversations after mass.



I'm so glad I got to know Chris, even if it was for such a short time. His faith in God was always inspring to me.



I remember, we went to a party together with a bunch of choir members. There was kariokie there and he wanted to sing Amazing God.



He will be greatly missed.
