"Chris was the sort of person that could light up a room just by being in it. He had a fantastic sense of humour and always tried to see the funny side, no matter what the situation. Judging by the amount of phone calls, cards and visits I have had, he will be missed by his colleagues, all of whom I know he regarded as great friends.
