    I am heartbroken for you and your family. Chris became a good friend of mine 12 years ago when we met. I’ve always looked at him as my uncle. I loved him as a blood relative even though he wasn’t. It’s so hard to take in- my heart breaks for you Tina- he loved you more than anything. Surprised you w Sonny- hopefully Sonny can bring some comfort to you. All my love….
