Wow, this news sucks. Though I liked to think of him as the Gene Simmons of SAHS in the 70's, he was an original and his own person.
We had some great times together, most notably the Interact Disney World trip. Wheeeeew.
I'm sorry he never wed or had children, it's their loss.
My prayers are with Russ as well as Chris's other family.

I knew Chris is high school, but, became closer over the past 10 yrs.and I thank God for that. The endless conversations about music, life, Lisa Ann Syphard, the true love of his life and my very best friend. I take great solace knowiing Chris was not afraid, after a very close encounter with dealth once and the beauty he described to me of the experience. My heart aches to speak just one more time to my beautifully talented friend with the most awesome blue eyes. Chris, please know Lisa and I love you, forever, and speak of you daily. My love to Betty and Russell. Dodie

I went to school with Chris and have missed him. There was never a dull moment when Chris was in the room. I still remember his artwork. My deepest sympathy to Russ and your family. I do and I will continue to think of Chris with very fond memories.

Dear Betty and Russell, What words can convey the feelings we have for Chris. He took up residence in my heart the first day I met him almost 30 years ago and he will always be there. Please let me know what I can do to help. Love, Donna

I didn't run in Chris' crowd, but knew him from high school; everyone at SAHS knew Chris. The inpression I always had about Chris was he was always, effortlessly, cool. A big guy with a wicked wit, he never picked on any of us who were smaller and geekier, and everyone was smaller and geekier than Chris. Chris disliked one type of person, as I recall. He hated hypocrites, it seemed to offend him personally. I wasn't smooth enough to be a hypocrite, so he was always witty and fun, generous to a fault with me. I remember we spoke for a good while at the 20th reunion while waiting for several refills from the cash bar, and his personality was exactly as it had been in high school; funny, direct, honest, very very smart. The next reunion will seem a little less fun with Chris gone. My sincerest regrets and condolences to all his family and friends.

Chris is truly unforgettable. We had some good times together that I will always remember. It was great seeing him recently at our gathering at the White Lion. In spite of the fact he knew his time was short he was himself, friendly, joking, carrying on but still caring. He cared deeply about those around him and he certainly left his mark. God Bless Chris and may he rest in peace.

I graduated with Chris also- I didn't spend that much time with him, but that's the thing about Chris- he left an impression no matter how well you knew him. What a talented guy who was ahead of his time. My condolences to his family.

I was truly sorry to hear the sad news about Chris. I went to school as well as graduated with him. Even though we weren't close friends, he was always friendly and spoke to me when we seen each other.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Chris ran with a different crowd than I did in High School so I never got to know him well- but several years ago, I was walking down the hall of Centex Builders and, out of a passing office, I heard my name. Chris greeted me like we were long- lost friends and we spent several minutes catching up- I really cherished that interaction and I was always sorry that I never followed up with that beer that we promised we would have together. I will be thinking of him often and will be waiting for the day when we can meet again.

Chris was a good friend and always a lot of fun to be around. On the rare occasions that we were able to see each other over the years, we were always able to pick up right where we left off, as if we had seen each other only weeks ago. I think that speaks to the closeness we all feel from those great years at SAHS. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of his Family and Friends. Rest well my friend.

Chris was so talented and a great guy. After high school, I only got to see him at the reunions, but have great memories of his sense of humor and that he was everyones friend. He will be missed by all of us.

I have known Chris since the 8th grade. Chris was a my friend, a great drummer and an awesome artist. We played in many bands together. One of the best things about Chris was that he was always real to himself and to his friends. I will miss Chris and I will never forget the times we shared growing up in St. Augustine. God bless Chris and his family.

Chris and I were good friends in school. After school, we drifted apart but just last year we talked on the phone for several hours. He was a great person from a good family. He will be missed.

When I first moved here in 1974 from up North Chris welcomed me to the area with open arms. We would ride the bus with all others from the Shores and the South ,and Mama Gs' brownies were great as always . We would ride skateboards ,
play football in the park , listen to and play music and just enjoy life.
This has been an extreemely trying year and we will all miss , remember , and love Christopher , as He will always be a true Brother of the Heart .
