Diana and family,
I am so very sorry to hear of Chris’ passing. It was always a joy participating in his meetings with Chris. One could not help but smile while sitting and talking with him, with his soft-spoken charm and pleasant way of telling a story. You are in my thoughts during this difficult time.

Kim, Ben, and Fred Abraham say:
You might as well have called Chris ‘Mr. Amazing’ for the way he lived his life. He touched many lives, including ours.
We extend our deepest sympathies to his family.

My deepest sympathy for your loss. May you find comfort in Jehovah God’s promise to end all our suffering, including death. A wonderful hope awaits us when we will be reunited with Chris, and all our dear loved ones, to live together forever in perfection, in Paradise. (Psalm 37:11, 29; Rev. 21:3-5) May you have peace during this difficult time.
