I'm SO sad to hear of Chris's passing. We all had some great times growing up in Croton...great memories! Chris always took pride with his 'ride, whether car or bike. He seemed so happy living down in Tennessee and I was always glad for him. May God's Loving Care be with you, Chris. I'm sorry had to leave us. My deep condolences to Chris's family.
