It was with tremendous shock that I heard about the sad passing away of Chris this week. Over the past 6 years I have enjoyed my interactions with Chris as part of WESSA's management and we had planned closer collaboration with regard to Umbogavango Nature Reserve which sadly cannot now include Chris but he has left a solid foundation on which to build. His selfless dedication to environmental education as a volunteer has been hugely inspiring to me personally, despite many funding challenges through which he persevered and succeeded. We have lost a great warrior for the environment and I know that his legacy will live on in the lives of many who were privileged to have been touched by him. Thank you Chris for all that you imparted and lived out in your life.
