I have had the honor and privilege to work as a subcontractor for Chris for 30 plus years. 3 generations of my family have not only gotten to work for Chris but regard him as a true friend. Chris was driven to produce and expected high quality work but would always take time to ask about family first. I’m shocked to hear the loss of Chris and he will be truly be missed. RIP my friend.
