I worked with Chris for a few years and had the pleasure of 'training' him at our company. He was already a very experienced data center manager by then and kept seemingly blowing off what I was trying to teach him...only to find out he was messing with me...he had a GREAT, dry sense of humor...I will miss him much. My prayers to his family.
