Chris was a great friend and colleague. It was an absolute privilege to have worked with him for several years. A true professional who was always consistent. You never had to think 'which Chris ' will turn up today. Sadly missed but fond memories will live on.
Much love Jenni and Nigel
Fond memories & much love
In memory of an outstanding man in every sense.
With much love Nic, Ian and the girls x
Just simply one of the nicest men we have ever met.
You don't meet many people like Chris in your life. He was an excellent person in every respect and it was a privilege to have worked with him.
Your memory will live on Chris. A great charity very much in our hearts too.
A tragic loss of a great guy. A true professional in every respect but with a great sense of humour, we will all miss his smile. R.I.P
As an aviator, Chris was outstanding. He was hugely popular, immensely capable and a real delight to work with. A consummate professional, Chris was the definition of a role model pilot but most of all, he was a man of total integrity, a great chap, warm and wonderful company.
Chris you set a wonderful professional example and will be long remember
Thinking of you all, love Lucy and Jack xx
Fond memories of a delightful neighbour
Chris was a wonderful and kind man who will be sadly missed by those who met him. It’s now over 10 years since he kindly sponsored me to become a VP at Pulborough Rugby Club. Despite not knowing me that well beforehand, the welcome was warm and I have enjoyed attending PRFC games ever since.
Thank you once again, Chris. RIP
God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be, so he put his arms around you and whispered come to me.
With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands to rest.God broke our hearts to prove to us -
He only takes the Best.
In memory of a wonderful, much loved family man who bore his illness bravely over several years.
RIP Chris. Safe journey to the stars ✨
Chris was a wonderful family friend , who was kind, strong, with a great sense of humour, fun to be with, generous with his hospitality and I will miss him very much, as will my family too. My heart goes out to Annie, Pip and Fiona. Also Ruby , Sadie and Freddie who have lost their amazing Pa who was so proud of them. Not forgetting his two Son in Laws at this sad time.
Chris lifted the whole rugby club with his energy, kindness, and loyalty. I’ll always be grateful for the memories shared over a beer. He’ll be greatly missed. Thinking of his family and all who loved him during this difficult time.
In memory of a good man who will be missed by all of us
