Christopher Raymond Lea

Chris was such a special person. It was my pleasure to spend time with him, over the phone, talking about his week or whatever came to mind. He was a fun, good person. He loved his family so much. He was a fun, good person. I will miss him.

Hampden-Sydney wouldn't have been the same without Chris! My neighbor our freshmen year in Carpenter Z and apartment mate our junior and senior years in the Blakes. It was fun to get him riled up by saying something that you knew he would correct you on. We loved watching football and playing the N64 together. Chris was a generous and caring soul! He donated more money than he should have to support teachers at my school through Donors Choose. My biggest regret is not getting together with Chris more when he moved to Farmville. Chris, you are and will continue to be missed!

Chris and I used to talk a lot. I would call him with random chemistry questions and I would love to drive him crazy with my mispronounciations. He was super proud of his brother and missed his parents a lot. I miss picking up the phone and calling or texting him. I miss you buddy.
