  1. Chris was great friend, and a wonderful human being. He was always willing to help someone that truly wanted it. My heartfelt condolences to the entire family and to Cheri. He’ll be greatly missed by so many. 🙏🏼❤️
    Rest in peace brother

  2. I am devastated and have been messaging to check on him. Chris became the love of my life over the past 5 years. I would have paid final respects had I known. 💔 He last told me on 3/27 he would be 100% soon. I love this man more than words can say. I am truly sorry to his family for their loss. Feel free to reach out to me.

  3. Chris was one hell of a man/father/friend/force to reckon with. May he rest in piece. Prayers for him and his family. You know for one thing…he is having one hell of a “discussion” with St. Peter at the pearly gates …Telling them how to improve Heaven. Can’t wait to see him again.

  4. Chris was very kind and lovable person

  5. I’m so sorry to hear this news. Chris was always so kind and helpful and he will be greatly missed. I pray that the Lord’s comfort and peace will be with the Gimaro family during this time.

  6. Chris was a warm, smart, caring person who loved being a father and a brother. He always had a smile on his face and a good word to share. I will miss our conversations about business and politics. The world lost a wonderful individual and while my time knowing him was relatively short, he had an impact on me that will never go away. I will miss him and am heartbroken about his passing. My love goes out to Joe and the rest of his family.
    Sincerely, Jack London

  7. What devastating news. I lived across the street from Chris in a magical neighborhood called Lamplighter Lane. So many great memories growing up in that neighborhood with the Gimaro’s. I am so sorry to hear of this loss. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Gimaro family.
    Rest peacefully Chris.
    Your neighbor, Greg Sirianni🙏🏼,
