Both myself and Keir were disappointed at not seeing Chris at this year's Cirque - now we know why. It has come as a great shock, Chris was a really great guy who made both of us feel very welcome in the US. And I will especially miss his lovely friendly emails. Dale has hit the nail on the head when he said how deaths like this remind us how we should value each other and be kind and generous to each other at all times...
