That's terrible news. Cris was a lovely bloke. He was quite unwell when I
spoke to him at GMDX earlier this year.
Chris do you have any information re his funeral time / place etc?
RIP Cris - one of the best.

That's very sad news indeed. I first met Cris many years ago, probably in
the early 70s, when I was living near Reigate, Surrey, and visited the Cray
Valley club of which he was then a member. A great guy. A great loss. My
sympathies to his family.

So sorry to hear this Chris. Cris and I had many QSOs over the years.
It seems I seem to be reading more and more SK notices for people I know
these days!

Very sad indeed. I first met Chris when a group of us used to meet after the
RSGB AGM when it was held at Savoy place. We have exchanged greetings in
QSOs ever since, our last QSO was in AFS in January - our first (as G4FAM)
in 1977. He will be sorely missed.

Very sad news indeed. I met Cris, G4FAM as he was then, at one of the first
RSGB HF conventions at the Belfry back in the 80s.
RIP OM

I am very sorry to hear the news Chris. Although I did not know Cris
personally I used to hear him very regularly in the pile-ups until recently.
He was an excellent operator and often got through before me. I had also
noticed that he was not around when 9M3SLL and D64K were on.
He will be missed.
May he rest in peace - GM4FAM (SK)

Can I add my condolences Chris. Worked Cris many times over the years
including 6m not that long ago.
Always a FB op.
