Hey Gramps I just wanted to say I love you and miss you very much. It is hard to imagine that a man who sat in the background holding a "square" and not saying too much could touch so many. Maybe that is your lesson to us, you dont have to talk to be heard your nice way of telling us to be quite. We are not the quickest bunch haha.

I just learned of Chris's passing and feel compelled to share my condolences. Chris worked for me in the early nineties at United Van Lines in Venice. Chris was a hard worker, very dependable and a steadying influence for the younger people around him. Though he was serious about work...I will remember his warmth, humor and that familiar New England accent. I haven't seen Chris for nearly twenty years but he made a lasting impression. Best wishes to family who have lost a great man.
