Chris H. identified as an Artist foremost. A true lover of Ravi Shankar's music. The 'H' in Chris H. was intentional, to promote unity after his parents separated. Of his superpowers, I admired his generosity and ability to forgive. He had a respectful amount of pride in facing his fears. Once his mobility declined, he referred to himself as 'wobbly'. He persevered to make his art, one last time. Then Rosecliffe became his home, we still have much gratitude and overwhelming love for the staff. We were also touched witnessing how the Shorncliffe staff chose to care for Chris and his family. Where his soulful, dedicated Mum stayed with him for his storied life ending. From being wobbly to bedridden Chris made profound personal changes, transcending his dislike for touch for one, and did not complain about his dramatic accumulative body limitations, as we did. Before his end, Chris knew he was well-loved.
