Chris always brought some sunshine into the room. In a business meeting or call Chris would gain the attention with his stories and positive attitude. If you did not know Chris you would wonder, who is this guy with loafers, no socks, neon button down dress shirt and teddy bear tie? I had the pleasure to work with Chris for many years at State Printing. We went separate ways for a while in the printing industry but started working together in 2016 when he joined Professional Printers as our Charleston Sales Representative. Chris brought immediate results in sales as he was so well known, trusted and liked by his
customers. They broke the mold with Chris. We will all miss Chris and never forget him. God Bless.
