To All of Chris' Friends and Family,
I'm so very sad for us all and, though I don't know many of you, I know that you too have a hole in your heart. Chris had many friends here in Houston--his infectious laugh and smile would have us rolling on the floor while his sense of style left us awed. I remember spending hours with him looking for just the right pair of sunglasses or just the right Nike's---you know it had to be just perfect and he drove me crazy, but I loved him for it. I shall shed my tears for Chris and wait patiently for the hole in my heart to fill with fond memories of a wonderful friend.
My Best to you all.

Dear Chris and Stephanie,
I am so sorry that you are having to go through amother loss in the family. As you can imagine, I can understand much of the shock and sadness that you might be feeling. Please know that you both are in my thoughts and have my deepest sympathy. I know that you have a tremendous amount of support from your friends and the community. I am sure you understand that I could not see everyone again under these circumstances so soon after losing Tom, so I chose to stay in North Carolina. Please call me if you need anything or just need to talk. Tom thought so much of Chris Jr.
With my love and sympathy,
Pam (Scordas) Robbins

Chris,
I am going to miss you terribly! You have been one of my best friends since we were at Crystal Spring Elementary. I will always cherish our fun, fun times together. I will never forget Rock Hooter, Tangerina DuBouy, Pinky Brown, Don King and goodness knows what other characters you dressed up as on Halloween.I am laughing thinking about it! I will miss your wit, your advice, your company and just knowing I could pick up the phone and call. You will always be a very important part of my life!I will never forget you and will always miss you!
Love,

Please accept my deepest sympathies.Chris had an affect on alot of people's lives, mine included. I was Chris Jr.'s right hand for 16 years and at one time I can remember it was just the two of us; but we worked hard together and were able to always get everything done. It got to where I could anticipate what he wanted or needed me to do, before he would even ask.I knew how much he counted on me, therefore I guess that's one reason we were able to work so well together as long as we did. He will be deeply missed by all.

For Chris,
I have been honored, to have shared a friendship with Chris. I and anyone he considered a friend, will miss his humor, creativity, and most of all, his wonderful idiosyncrasies. I Know I will miss him most this coming fall. The fall of the year in Knoxville, always brought football time and Chris to town. That meant a demanding dinner schedule the night before, and an exciting game day. I had been looking forward to his next visit, to show him the new three tiered rotunda at Jefferson Bank. Something he would appreciate, because he is an architect at heart. He loved great houses. So I can imagine, him right now, creating a place that I can’t wait to see. I will miss and Love you.
Your Friend, Ron Lee

It is with much sadness that we send our sincere condolences. Although we didn't grow up in Roanoke with Chris and we were but casual friends, we always felt a sense of warmth and caring that accompanied his greeting and his inate ability to draw out a laugh and an smile from us in a short conversation will be greatly missed.
He will be one of the angels watching over us all.

Dear Dr. Scordas and Stephanie,
I am so sorry for your loss. Chris was such a sweet soul. I remember when he use to come to the house on Peakwood to see Liz. He would always make a special effort to goof off with me and being Lizs little sister I was always so flattered by his kindness. He will be deeply missed.

Dear Scordas Family,
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy for your loss. I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Chris. I spoke with Chris many times in the past, (while I was employed at Grand Home Furnishing credit department). We talked about his admiration of fine furniture and what he was working on with his home. (What a great sense of humor he had)! He often spoke with love of his family. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Stephanie & Dr. Scordas,
Words do not do justice to the sense of loss that I feel. Chris was one of few very dear friends. We didn't see each other as often as we should have,but knew that when it was FOOTBALL TIME IN TENNESSEE we would have the pleasure of his company. Whenever he arrived (in yet ANOTHER new car) his favorite chair, ashtray, and cocktail (complete with two beverage napkins) were always waiting for him.We were trying to make his stays as close to the perfection that he displayed as host. Dinners were always a nervous delight (those poor servers). His visits to or home were never long enough. We would ask him to stay another day, but being so dedicated to work, he would windex his windshield twice and be on his way.It was his eccentric nature that made him so lovingly different from anyone else we know. We will always cherish the time that we shared with Chris, and his departure has left a large hole in our hearts that may never fully heal. I know that we will see Chris again in Heaven one day, and fully expect him to say "What took you so long? I've been waiting!"

To the entire Scordas family,
Please accept my deepest sympathy in your loss. We loved having Chris at the Club, spoiling him, sharing his enthusiasm for football,his humor and his candid suggestions. I will especially miss his almost daily phone call with the question, "What's the Soup of the Day, and if it's vegetable, would you please give me two-thirds vegetables and the rest liquid?"
I already miss you Chris.

Dr. Scordas, Stephanie, and family...
I am extremely saddened to have heard about Chris's passing. Along with many others, i met and got to know and love him by being an employee of Hunting Hills Country Club. There are countless memories of waiting on him and his friends, the Allisons on Thursday nights, even a wednesday here and there.
I will never forget all the talks that i had with him, the jokes, the laughter...even if the joke was on me. He was a gentleman you had to know and learn to appreciate his wonderful personality, and he was thouroughly appreciated.
I will miss his smiling face and his presence at the club. He was not just a member, but a friend. Not someone who just demanded something from you, but cared about the outcome, and who you were as a person.
I will never forget the impact he has had on me personally, and professionally.
I love and miss him...and as will many others.
My condolences and prayers are with the family.

It is with great sadness and confusion that I send these tearful condolences to the family of my former employer and friend "Chris Jr". I am deeply sorry for Chris's father and sister Stephanie for this unexplainable tragedy.
My memories of working for Chris in the early 90's are his sense of humor, even when the joke was on my behalf. He was demanding but fair. Chris was a generous and thoughtful person while not often understood. He was talented, extremely hard working and committed to excellence in his craft as a dental technician.
Chris's passing will be a great loss to his family, his friends, his business colleagues and his employees.
We love you Chris, and we are very sad that you are not with us.

I only knew Mr. Scordas for about a year but it felt like a lifetime. I was like his own personal server at Hunting Hills Country Club. I will be lost on Thursday nights not seeing his smiling face and sitting at his own special table. He was more that just a member or a customer to me, I considered him to be my friend. I will miss you Mr. Scordas......fly with the angels!

Dear Scordas Family,
We are deeply saddened today to learned from his associates at the Roanoke Dental Ceramics, that your son, Chris Scordas Jr, had died.
We are thinking of you and send our heartfelt condolences.
It seems like only yesterday that Chris talked about his love of college football "Tennesse Volunteers". We all admired his pleasantness, upbeat energy and honor the manner in which he conduct our business relationship.
With affection and deep sympathy, we hope that your fond memories of Chris will give you comfort.
January 3, 2008
