Plutarch said "The measure of a man is the way he bears up under misfortune." Chris enjoyed laughing through his circumstance. On Tuesday night we were laughing about our 25 children that would be coming to see him Wednesday. I will miss him sooo much Lucy. My prayers are for you and your family for Gods Peace and comfort to be with you all. Rest in peace Chris for God is not through with us yet
Chris Papen was a gentle soul, very talented who left us all the gift of his music. We were in the same class at Holy Cross. How he loved to devil the nuns and tease the girls! He was one of the first guys to grow his hair long, after the Beatles landed. Everyone at the high school reunion in 2011 reminisced and shared memories that included Chris. I am glad he is at peace now.
