My roommate at U of Arizona---class of 82. Loved Chris's laugh and spirit. He was good at almost everything sports and more. He once almost knocked me over with a fastball when I decided to play catcher for him. I last saw Chris in NY at the Belmont Racetrack with his kids, brother, and friends in 2011. He was so nice to invite me. I had the pleasure of meeting his lovely wife Katie and his adorable two "pride and joys", Samantha and Chloe. I then, just lost touch...goofy life stuff. When I heard of this tragic news I was really touched with profound sadness and loss. We will all miss his terrific energy. Katie---if I can help comfort you and the kids---I would love to help and share whatever. I can absolutely share some wonderful U of A stories for sure. All my heart and love to you. See you on the other side Christopher. Yours, David Larkin, Sparta NJ

I grew up with Chris. He was a wonderful person. He was kind, fun and a great basketball player. I know he must have been a wonderful husband and father. To his wife and girls; know he loved you with the heart of a lion. Know how lucky he was to have you...and you him, who knew him best. We used to play basketball at Christopher Morely Park where many of my happiest memories remain. I was shocked to hear of his passing last night at the reunion. I will miss him dearly for the rest of my life. G*d bless you and Chris.

Chris was a long time volunteer softball coach and umpire in the West Side Little League where his wonderful daughters Samantha and Chloe, now adults, played for so many years. Chris was a dedicated volunteer known for his commitment, fairness and kindness to players--- and for his dry sense of humor. Although I hadn't seen him for many years, I can still picture him on the fields in Riverside, Morningside and Central Park and hear his distinctive voice. Chris made a real contribution to the community and will long be remembered by those who had the pleasure of working with him in the League. My sincerest condolences to his wife Katie and to Samantha and Chloe.
Sincerely,
Debbie Kling
President West Side Little League
