I am so sadden by Chris's passing. I have known Chris for many years. He was a great leader for our TCSA and a great friend. Chris went above and beyond to help others in their time of need. His personality was priceless and his face book postings will be missed dearly. RIP my friend you will be missed.

It was an honor to work with such a thoughtful, insightful, and generous man. His dedication to building and serving Indian Country was matched by his kindness and his wisdom. Chris, with great respect and appreciation, I will miss your influence and leadership.
