I was so sad to hear about Christopher.

God Bless you Christopher.

Hi

I have been slow hearing the sad news. Christopher was a great contibutor to Rootschat although sometimes controversial. It is times like this that although we knew him well on Rootschat there was so much more we did not know. I was sad to think he died alone and was found sometime after. Wherever he is now and whatever our beliefs I hope he has found peace and love.

If you had a God Chris may he be with you, if you did not and you don't mind may my God be with you.

What more can I say

I had an e-mail about Christopher whilst on holiday but couldn't find a link on here until today.

Christopher will be sadly missed.  He helped me with bits of family history research even though my ancestors weren't Irish just in Ireland with the army for a few years.

May you rest in peace and I hope your sister can take consolation from all the kind thoughts on here.

Christopher and others like him, should be considered National Treasures of Ireland. His tireless efforts to help others discover their roots in Ireland, lifted the spirits of many and encouraged them to continue their search. I am so glad my path crossed his, even if only by internet. I know Christopher is in the presence of his ancestors and they are very proud of him.
