Please accept my heartfelt condolences. I could not believe this was the same wonderful guy I worked with in the SEMA office when I read of his passing in the Amica news. Heaven has certainly gained an angel, but I am so sorry for your loss.

There are no words to express the sorrow. I knew Chris at work. He always had that smile and twinkle in his eyes and spoke so proudly of his family. Rest assured that God has welcomed Chris home and will hold you all in His Loving Hands. Psalm 23. In deepest sympathy, Fred Kast
