Chris was a classmate of mine and I knew he was fighting this horrible disease, but he led an incredible life! He is leaving behind a legacy as only he could do. Major, you're in good hands now and I also send you one last slow final salute from a fellow veteran.

Our sincerest condolences to Rita and the rest of the Conover family. I always smile when sharing stories of the fun times shared with Chris and the Sunset Boys Golf League. I'd look forward to hearing from The Master of Ceremonies at the year-end outings held in Lake Placid! Chris was always a good sport and fun to be around.

Chris was one of my best friends and he will be missed greatly. We shared many times together, golfing, canoeing, partying all of which were fun times. Heartfelt condolences go out to the entire family including his brothers and sisters.
Rest in peace brother, you are now a "Freebird".
