Greif is like the Ocean:
it comes on in waves, ebbing and flowing.
Some times the water is calm and some times it is over whelming.
All we can do is learn to swim.

Dear Pam and family,
We’re so sad for you all. I don’t know what else to say. A shock and a terrible loss.
sending my condolences to the family
Chris was a man of few words. He was a true friend who was ALWAYS there for our family. From rescuing the boys from a safe across the street, to selling safes, to building our deck. He was there for us, no matter what! He introduced Fletch to his favourite place…the Hunt Camp. Trips to the camp, snowmobile trips and Christmas parties at the Fire Hall will never be same again. Our hearts are broken from the loss of our dear friend, “Uncle” Pester.
Pam and family. Condolences on your loss.
Dear Pam and Family

Pam, Colin, Kurt is & Kalie…..my heartfelt condolences, virtual hugs and thoughts are with you at this very sad time. Chris was a man of few words. I always thought he was shy….but he just didnt need to say anything…lol. I will always remember ‘that time in Jamaica’ when he decided to join me, Jen & Jenson at the Japanese restaurant. He talked up a storm!! (Well…for Chris it was a storm…lol) I got to know him a little better and I’m so glad I did. 😊 😇❤
So sorry to hear of the loss of Chris , I am the same age as Chris’s younger brother Brad , we attended school together and I have some fond childhood memories of Chris .
Please accept my sincere condolences to the whole family.

Our sincerest condolences to you and your family. Hold tight to all the good memories.
Many years ago I had the privilege to work with Chris at Black & McDonald. Although I was only there briefly he made an impression on me. I would go on to run into him at the arena a few times when my son played lacrosse. That same son went on to become an electrician with the IBEW and enjoyed working along side Chris. When my younger son who is a new apprentice with the IBEW came home from work at the Maple Leaf plant telling me that a foreman had passed. When he went on to say it was Chris, my heart was heavy for his loss. My thoughts are with his family at this time. I am so sorry for your loss.
GERAIDINE SORRY TO HERE ABOUT YOUR SONS PASSING ,LOTS MEMORIES OF YOU,AND HUGH SENIOR.
My Heartfelt condolences to Pam and the Hayes family

Dear Pam and Family,
Sharon and I viewed the live streamed family service to say good-bye to Chris. It was a beautiful service, that we hated to miss, but we don’t drive that far any more. Colon and Kalie gave us a wonderful views of their life with Dad and how they loved him dearly. We were very impressed with the words of you minister. Over the years we were always thrilled with the number of Family- Get-Togethers that Chris and Pam and the children have attended, always with a just washed pickup.
Love Sharon and Joe McMullen (Brighton)
