Chris (Oz) adored his family and loved spending any free time with them. His passions were for dancing and gardening. He danced every day and wherever he was, it didn’t matter, he would break out in dance. His love of gardening never waned and his prized heritage tomato seeds will be passed down to the generations. He was a storyteller and always had some interesting history or stories to share. One of Chris’s proudest achievements was being a member of UA Local 46 Toronto – Plumbers & SteamFitters, for over 65 years.
