Phyllis and family... I was saddened to learn of Chris' passing. I have many good memories of our time working together on the Pfizer FD
and our time as volunteers with Mohegan Fire Co. when we lived in Uncasville. Chris always had an upbeat attitude and was well known for his sense of humor and perspective on many issues.
My sincere condolances to you all at this difficult time.

Chris and I were childhood friends and our mothers were best friends. We traveled together often - even spending six weeks together in Italy with his mother, Emma's, relatives. I moved back to New London recently and am sorry that I did not get in touch with him. I am so sorry to hear of his passing.
