I just heard the tragic news want to say how deeply sorry I am. It was so unexpected, which makes it even harder on those of us who share your grief. I hope that the outpouring of sympathy you are receiving is some consolation at this very sad time. The family will be in my thoughts and prayers. In Faith & Sympathy, Deb Durie Percetti

We were so saddened to read of Chris' sudden passing. As long-time Friday night patrons of the Creekside, we enjoyed talking sports with Chis and the hospitality of all Creekside employees.

Maryanne and I have seen Chris grow over the 30 plus years we have known him into a great , warm outgoing persona. Our office is across the street and I would stop over for lunch frequently and always enjoyed chatting with Chris. Today as I looked out the window of my office to see the silent vacant parking lot feelings of emptiness filled my heart.
I will miss Chris but will never forget what he did to brighten the lives of those who were fortunate to know him and have the honor of being his friend.

My husband and I wish to extend our sympathy to Chris’ family, as we are deeply saddened to hear of his passing.
Whenever we think of Chris and Amanda’s wedding, we do nothing but smile as both looked so happy and the room was filled with family and friends who shared in their joy. You could feel the happiness and warmth.
Chris was taken too soon, our thoughts and prayers go to Amanda, their children, Chris’ mother and sisters. We are here for you anytime Amanda, just know that.

I am so very sorry to hear of Chris’s passing. I will always hold fond memories of hanging out with Chill in “the hut” in high school. He was so funny and kind. May he Rest In Peace and may his family and children find comfort in the days and weeks to come.

So sorry for your loss Amanda, Harper and Colton and the Kline family. My prayers are with all of you.

Deeply saddened to hear about the sudden passing of Chris aka 'Chill'. I have so many great memories growing up together at CB West, playing b-ball, and countless nights hanging at the 'hut'. We then went onto East Stroudsburg together and I'll forever cherish our great times and friendship during all of those years. Chill and that great laugh of his will be dearly missed. My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends during this very difficult time.

We are so very saddened by this sudden loss. He was way too young to go. Don and I enjoyed many pleasant evenings at the CreekSide. Don and I extend our most heart felt condolences to to the family.

Our condolences. Thoughts and prayers are and will be with you all for days ahead. May Jesus blanket you with comfort in knowing his wonderful smile and personality and hold good memories always very near in your heart. God bless and
Please do keep us posted on fund information as it becomes available.

I send my condolences to you Amanda and your children in this sad and unsettling hour and my thoughts and prayers so that, inevitably, the sun may again shine for all of you in time.

My condolences to the family of Chris Willard. I had the pleasure of coaching him at CB West. A good person and basketball player. Always had a smile. I'm sorry I just now found about his passing, i would have liked to have paid my respects.

We are so sorry for your loss.We knew Chris when Lee still owned the bar.He was a wonderful young man with a great love for people . We saw him last year for the first time since he was the owner of the Creekside, and he still remembered us. That just goes to show you what a wonderful man he became. We will miss his great smile and his love for the people in his life .RIP Chris. Our condolences to his family, wife , and children.

There are no words, but l try. I am so sad to hear of the passing of Chris. He was a friend of mine in college. We all shared such good times together. He was a hard working, warm, and funny individual. We had to tear him away from his studies sometimes. He had fun, but he really wanted to get those A's to make his family proud. He did. May he rest in peace. May all of his loved ones find comfort in remembering the good times. His life not his death.
