Christopher was the first to greet me on my first posting on Rootschat.  A wonderful and kind gentleman.  He will be sorely missed on this site.

R.I.P. Christopher.

Like others I am shocked to hear of the passing of Christopher, a true cyber friend to many. In researching our family history we are assisted by many but very few stand out for their assitance, their guidance and more importantly their friendship as Christopher did. Although not helped directly by Christopher he provided links that had helped me (and others no doubt) to understand the small part of my own family roots, and as others have said his postings were ones to look out for and read with interest. Christopher will be missed by many and it is a tribute to the man that many have posted their respect to him here with warmth and heartfelt thanks to a true gentleman. Thank you Christopher for taking the time, and the touble for helping others.

Rest in peace Christopher,

He may not have had a huge immediate family but the response here shows he had a large caring rootschat family.

RIP Christopher, you'll be missed

What a terrible shock. I always enjoyed reading Christopher's posts. He had the knack of being interesting whatever he was saying. I will miss him.

Thank you for posting, Pentio, we may otherwise never have known.
