Two reader comments about Christopher Cross
I lived across the street from Chris, Ricky and whole family back in the sixties. We were good friends. I still think about the football games in the street and other good times. Chris was a fun, funny kid.
Ricky, if you read this, accept my condolences.

Chris was sharp with cars and knew what he wanted in life. My longtime friend of 44 years is gone too soon.
