We´re so sad to hear of Chris´ passing. He was such an amazing person to all our family. Chris had a special way about him - a lot like the way his grandfather Wilbur did. He was always so witty, intelligent, kind, and loving - he was a joy to be around. We loved him.
Words can´t express the sympathy we feel for you and the family. You are all in our prayers. God Bess and comfort you and dear Christopher.

Suzanne, Bart and Vanessa, and Valerie and Olivia:
I am so sorry to hear about Chris. My heart just breaks for you because I know there is nothing anyone can say or do to ease your pain.
I have fond childhood memories of Chris, Bart, and Suzanne at the annual McNair reunions. One thing that was always so obvious to me at the reunions was Chris's love for his mom and brother. Bart, I know this is such a devastating loss for you because you guys were not only brothers but also best friends.
I hope each of you find peace and comfort in the days ahead. I will be praying for you. I hope to see you soon and catch up. Take care!

Brother, I spent my whole life looking up to you. You provided me strength when I needed it. You were there from the day I was born, to when I graduated High School and College, were the best man when I got married, and have always been my best friend.
Your departure leaves a big whole in my heart. I am going to miss our almost daily discussions usually about nothing of consequence. Some of the best times in my life were spent with you by my side. I am glad we were able to have one last quick trip together and you had the time of your life (best roll you ever had at the craps table). We were as close as brothers could be. I often heard many people say they wish they had the kind of relationship with their sibling as we did. To that, I tell them, it's not to late. Reach out now while you have the time.
When that day comes where I get to see you again, I hope to tell you about all the adventures Vanessa and I have gone on and how much I lived life to its fullest. I can't wait to tell you more stories about all of the fishing, the golfing, and the trips to Vegas I will experience. And you will gladly listen as if you were hearing them for the first time, but you will have already known about them as you will always be with me in spirit. I hate to say goodbye, so instead, I say "I will see you again."
