I had the pleasure of sitting with Chris for a few minutes at the BlizzCon Charity Dinner last year.    He took time to talk to my son and daughter while his wife chatted with mine.   He didn't need to do that.  He was running out the door to another engagement, but he stopped and spent 20 minutes talking to two young fans.  

He is a class act and he will be missed. 

Happy trails and thanks for all of the hard you put in making the world a more entertaining place for the rest of us. 

For nearly twenty-three years I’ve had the very distinct privilege of shaping worlds and building games with the brightest creative minds in entertainment. I’ve walked with giants (and stood on some giants’ shoulders, too). 

In short, I’ve had the time of my life.
