Hearing the unfortunate and certainly untimely news of Chris’ passing was a tremendous shock to me and I continue to process the impacts of this loss on my work and personally on what he meant to me.  Chris was a valued member of our company’s Security Leadership Team and had become more than that in the two plus short years that I had the fortune to work and collaborate with him.  He was a standout and dedicated security professional, calm and deliberate, yet passionate about the protection of company assets, information, and especially employees around the world.  Our weekly conversations would always start with “weekend” talk where we shared information about our personal lives and interests and either what we did last weekend or were planning for the next.  I learned over time about his love of flying his Pitts Special and riding his new Ducati, and his military career.  He certainly lived life to the fullest and I only wish I had the ability to have spent more time with him.  He will be truly missed as a standout contributor and more importantly as a colleague, teammate, and friend.  I send my sincere condolences to his family and …

I miss Chris’ regular skype messages, they always started with a sunshine emoji.. I was so gutted when I got the trajic news, but to know he was doing what he loved to do most brought some peace as I hope it did to the family and those closest to Chris. Chris is missed still at work, his professionalism, humour and mostly his “Liam Neeson’ness” as I called it! Sending my continued thoughts and condolences to you all and I’m sure he is soaring in the sky still x …

I was so sad and shocked to hear about Chris passing and my thoughts are with his nearest and dearest at this difficult time.   He was a true professional and gentleman and as a valued member of my team I had the pleasure of working very closely with him.  He showed passion, focus and determination in everything he did and his desire to do the right thing for the company, his team and his colleagues was steadfast.   What I learned about his past military career further underlined his strong character, his dedication and bravery in leading his military team, making him the War hero he is.   Chris lived life to the full, he loved flying, it was one of his true passions and he would always talk about how much he enjoyed being in his plane and also riding his red Ducati motorcycle.   We all miss you Chris and I hope that your family can take some comfort and strength from the special memories we have of you.   Rest in peace Chris.   …

Chris was the most approachable, friendly, professional i have had the priviledge to work with.  He could laugh at jokes and be serious when needed.  I will always remember our daily and weekly meetings as we stood up the contingency program.  He will be truly missed. …

I am new to NG so never actually met Chris in person, only via online meetings.  I am aware of the presence Chris had across the Company and that he is very missed.  Chris was obviously highly regarding at NG as well as a friend to many.  Sending my thoughts to Chris’ family, RIP. …

So sorry to learn of your passing.  You were a true professional and a real gentleman.  Fare winds and following seas. …

I first met Chris on a Zoom call, but then regularly saw him as he came into the Cheltenham Office – usually once a week. I worked with Chris closely as part of the Security team. What I will remember about Chris will be his pragmatism, his leadership, his humility and his friendliness to everyone he met. We talked often about Cambridge, and his hobbies such as his flying and motorbikes. He was immensley proud of his daughter, and was always concerned about the welfare of others. My thoughts go out to his friends and his family at this sad time. RIP Chris.  …

Chris was a true professional and I am so grateful to who he was, and the huge contribution he made to our organisation. He is missed regularly in the workplace, specifically his updates into our staff briefings where he brought the ‘real world’ into our everyday life – reinforcing the message to think about what you’re doing and the impact it may have. My thoughts go to those closest to him and remember, he will not be forgotten. …

Chris, what can i say about you? Inspirational, just doesnt cut it. From recruitment to being my friend, you never stopped impressing me with your drive and humour.  RIP  Your memory lives on …
