Chris was my brother and although there is 12 years difference between us I have memories of him when he was a coalman in fact I worked with him for a while when I was in my twenties. He started off with a horse and cart delivering coal around the Kings X area of London. He was also a gambler I remember when I was young he would come home from New Cross Dogs having won a nice few quid and would stick five pound notes on the walls in my mums kitchen and in them days a five pound note was white and a lot bigger than they are now days. He went on from dog racing to the horses which he loved and I used to speak to him a lot about the racing and I’m going to miss that. There are many things I could speak about him in he’s long life. I will certainly miss him Chris RIP

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Christopher. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
