I was shocked to hear about the passing of your husband Chris. I just noticed it in the paper yesterday and I think that it was meant for me to see. I didn't know Chris but he must have been a wonderful man for you to have married him. Please accept my condolences and I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Annette I have thought about you so many times in the years since high school and wish you all the best.

Annette and family, so sorry to hear about Chris. I'll never forget all the good times we all had at Fat's and West York. Saturday mornings were the best with Chris and Freddie sitting there waiting for me and Ms Jackson made us breakfast. Now Chris and Freddie are up there gossiping and talking about Nascar. He will be missed greatly. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Love, Jenny Bo-Benny

Nettie,
We are so sad to hear of Chris's passing . Some of the best memories of our years in the crazy bar business were shared together. We had so many laughs and he had the best "smirk" when you would crack him up! We will cherish his memory and are so glad we had the chance to know him. I went through a hard time in my life and I would come and visit you at the TI, and he would let me sit at his desk and take up all of your time....and he never complained! He would just hug me and reassure me that things were gonna be fine. That's who he was, tough on the outside, sweetest soul inside. Our "Elvis" has left the building. May he rest in peace. Love you Nettie!
