Chris was one of my favorite people at work. Even though we worked in different departments, I would see Chris all the time around the building or on the production floor. We would always stop and talk about current events, what we did on our holidays or vacations, or what was currently going on in our lives. I am really going to miss those conversations and seeing him around. Thanks Chris for your friendship and for touching my life! I am already missing you. Rest in peace, my brother. Your Friend, Dave.
