Chris and I spent many years working on challenging projects in our roles as Cyber Security Architects. Every trip I had to Hopkinton or Southboro involved interesting conversations and fun-filled team building activities. One noteworthy instance was when we were involved with a lot of intense technical discussions with multiple team members for designing a solution. It was late in the evening and Chris casually said "Come over to my house, we will have a drink and some dinner." Even after that long day, he was enthusiastic and happy. I drove to his house after a brief stop at my hotel in Framingham, and he welcomed me warmly. He introduced me to his wife and daughters, and we chatted long into the night over a few beers. He cooked some absolutely delicious Malabar/Sri Lankam curry for dinner. We talked a lot about our childhood days, and he shared so much with me about his life in Sri Lanka and Canada. Chris is such a wonderful person and good friend. I will miss him dearly.
