To Dawn and Family
In my years as South Island manager for Harcourts I was lucky enough to enjoy Chris' company, humour and wisdom an many occasions. That was always a treat and a pleasure. Chris enriched the many networks he nurtured and will be sorely misse by you and we all. He certainly has left his mark. I'm sure he will be given a superb send off tomorrow

I am sorry to hear of Chris's passing. My dad and Chris's dad were great mates and Chris and I got around a bit during our teenage days. (long time ago now). Horses and hunting were our shared interest. Rest in peace Chris.
