It’s a shock to hear of Chris’s passing. He was such a vital and dynamic human being, whose transition obviously, will leave a tremendous void for so many people. I’ve known Chris virtually my whole life— from early Saint John’s School years— to his leather pants-wearing rocker days— on through to more seasoned times as a dad and community leader. Chris was/is a star, who packed a lot of living… a lot of creativity… into his 60 years on this Earth. He was a friend always. And it dawns on me now that Chris is a person who would probably do anything within his power to help me out, if ever I was in need. And that’s quite a thing in this life. While I know that Chris surely yearned to have been able to fulfill his physical presence with loved ones during this lifetime, I am certain that he is also gloriously happy in his new adventure... at his new home... on the infinite stage! Where he is able to BE and DO it all! Not least for his family, for whom he now can orchestrate, without constraint, all manner of opportunity and joy! Heck, he can even now reconstitute his beloved 1970s Starsky and Hutch sweater! There is no limit for Chris. My heart goes out to Missy, Keith, Gabby, Vicky, Donna, Cole, Ali and Samantha. I regret that I could not be there with you all for Chris’s service, due to my distance from Maine. I’d surely like to connect with Missy, et. al. Should you be interested, I can be found on LinkedIn. Love you all! —Tommy
