I wish to share my deepest condolences with Chris' family. Speaking with many, he had a profound impact on the lives of those who had the pleasure of knowing him.

I am sure many will share a similar experience, but Chris opened a door for me to start a new chapter in my life at Deloitte. He gave me the opportunity to start a new career in technology with no prior experience, and throughout my years at the firm he always made time to lend a shoulder to lean on or an ear to chew. He was always there for advice or to simply talk about cars and loving the quiet life. He was an amazing person and leader. He will be missed, but I know I will get my chance to speak with him again.

In his own quiet and calm manner, Chris showed how to work through challenging times and to carry everyone along. He loved his family. I´ll always think of our work experiences, our talks during Elaine´s illness and his diagnosis. Rest in peace Chris.

I wish to send my deepest condolences to Chris' family. Speaking to many, it was always clear that he had a profound impact on may people. As I am sure many others can say, Chris opened the door for me to start a new chapter in my life with Deloitte. He was there for me at the very beginning, offering a shoulder to lean on and the support to come into a field I had no experience in. Throughout the years, Chris always took the time out of his busy schedule to lend an open ear and provide guidance, even supporting my transition out of TSS. He was a fantastic leader and someone who's character I look to emulate daily. In short, Chris was an amazing person and will be missed.

It is with a heavy heart that I extend my deepest condolences for the passing of Christopher "Chris" Haggerty. Chris was not only a friend and colleague but a cherished presence in my life. His warmth and camaraderie will be profoundly missed. I fondly recall the joy we shared over a Philly cheesesteak and the laughter that accompanied our indulgence in Philadelphia's treats during his office visits. Those moments are a testament to the light-hearted and genuine person he was. May our cherished memories bring us comfort as we honor his legacy.

With heartfelt sympathy,
Jay

Chris was a colleague and a best buddy of my husband, Robin. I heard many funny stories of how the two razzed one another during team meetings. I always say you only razz the ones you love so Chris and Robin had a great friendship.

I experienced the depth of Chris' care and concern when, during the early days of Covid, Robin contracted it. At the time so many were so sick and being hospitalized. I was terrified. Chris reached out to me with words of support and an offer to help in any way he could. His reaching out to me was so comforting.

We were blessed to have Chris stay with us when Robin retired last year. I enjoyed meeting him in person and got to catch a glimpse of the amazing and kind man he was.

So many love him and I know I'll see him again some day in eternity. Chris, Robin, and I all enjoy golf. In heaven the rounds go fast as every hole is a hole in one!

Until then, Chris, you remain in our hearts and minds. Cindy

Chris, or Norm as I all called him, was the kind of friend who lit up every room just by walking in, much like the Norm character from Cheers. His presence brought warmth, joy, and a sense of comfort that was truly one-of-a-kind. Chris had an incredible ability to make everyone feel valued and welcome, with a smile and a laugh that could turn any day around. He wasn´t just a friend; he was a guiding light in my life, always there with a listening ear and wise advice. Losing him leaves a void that can never be filled. I´ll miss him deeply, not just for the good times we shared, but for the guidance and support he offered so generously. Chris was someone you could always count on, and I´ll forever cherish the memories and lessons he left behind.
