I have many good memories of Chris, both at the seminary and after. My condolence to his wife, Beverly (also a good friend), and his family.

My thoughts and prayers to Beverly and his daughters. Father Chris was an amazing person who was the priest at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church in Earleville. Chris spoiled the congregation with his dedication and going above and beyond. His amazing personality brought many people to church and filled the pew. 26 years ago he did my brothers service and it was by far the best eulogy that I have ever heard he told a story of his life. Rest in Peace Father Chris we know you are looking down on us.
