Chris was a classmate of mine at Rye High School, class of 1965, and a team mate on the baseball team.  He was a terrific guy who made everyone in his presence comfortable.  Didn’t realize he had gone on to the West Point and served in Vietnam.  He will be missed by all who knew him.

Chris and I were in the same class at Rye High School and were friends. He was such a good guy and always a friend. I was sorry to hear that he passed away this past August.  I didn't know he served in Vietnam because after High School I never saw him. I wonder if he wbas there when I was there.
He will be missed. R.I.P. Chris...
