Cris, I think about you often. You were more than a coworker to me. You were my friend. I will always cherish our meaningful talks and the laughs we shared. You were there for me on one of my darkest days and I will never forget the things you said and how you helped me get through it. Rest easy Cris and know that you are deeply missed.

Cris was always able to light up a room with his smile or start up a conversation and make everyone laugh and feel at ease. I know that everyone who knew him over the past few years at Millersville will always miss him and never forget him. Even those of us who only had the privilege of knowing him for a short time have been deeply impacted by his loss. He is very much loved and missed, and most certainly, still talked about. We miss him. I hope your family and friends are able to find solace in Christ and pull through these hardest of times together. My deepest sympathies and prayers are and will always be with you. Rest in peace, Cris, and please watch over the rest of us, as we know you will.

Theresa Lenny & Family
We were deeply saddened to hear the tragic news about Cris. There were many kids in and out of our house when our sons were in school, Cris was one of the special ones, always ready with a smile or a joke and even after our boys left home he would come and visit when he was home from school. He had a beautiful light inside him and a kind and generous nature. He will be missed. Our hearts go out to you in your time of sorrow.
