Chris was a great staff member, colleague and first-rate tutor who made sure he got the best out of his students. It was so pleasing to read the comments from his former students to see the high esteem in which he was held – the true testament of a good teacher.
He always put the wellbeing of others before himself, and I recall the many times I would pass him on the stairs and he would needlessly apologise for holding me up, as he struggled with his own restricted mobility.
In the early days his waistcoats brightened our days and I remember well his reluctance when I forced him to comply with the new uniform code – but like the true gentleman he was, he complied without further complaint.
He will be missed by many and my deep and sincere condolences go out to Chris’s immediate family.
