Allerliebster Chris, It’s hard to write this with tears in my eyes and such a heavy heart over your sudden and untimely death. You were just getting started… Will I really never hear your infectious laughter or Schwäbisch talk again? Your endless knowledge about everything and enthusiastic throat clearing? I can’t imagine you never coming…
Hey Christopher, als Teil deiner deutschen Family möchten wir drei Pfistert-Mädels unsere Bestürzung über deinen allzu frühen Tod zum Ausdruck bringen. Die Nachricht traf uns wie ein Paukenschlag. Wir sind fassungslos – wir sind traurig – uns fehlen die Worte. Es waren immer ganz besondere Momente wenn Du bei uns in Sontheim einen Zwischenstopp eingelegt…
I am thinking of the gesture of Christopher’s life. I have missed sharing his presence in his later years as our paths did not cross. My memories arise from his teen years not long after his family moved to AA. His creative terrain was helping when needed in the medical practice. His assistance to the…
“Wohin können wir denn sterben, wenn nicht in immer höheres, größeres, schwersterblicheres – Leben hinein!” (Christian Morgenstern) Vom 17.-31.8.2001 war ich als Krankenschwester beim “annual Summer Therapeutic Retreat at Lake Huron Retreat Center, Michigan”.

My Dear Chris: ever since we met at the Bayerische Staatsoper back in 2012, we stayed in touch, and I was so delighted that we crossed paths a little more when you brought your life to London. You were destined for great things in music, and your shining personality, enthusiasm, and knowledge were infectious. I’ll…
In Memory of Christopher Du strålte om kapp med solen så kom skyene og du ble borte Du kom feiende inn på Bjergsted alltid forberedt, korrekt og profesjonell Du fylte rommet med din kunnskap, og din unike musikalske formidling, på norsk, engelsk og tysk Du stilte krav, men med sjarm og humor Ga oss troen…
wir hatten schöne Stunden mit Christopher, egal wo wir ihn getroffen haben. Uns bleibt die Erinnerung an Weimar, Berlin und dem Schillerhof in Heilbronn.
No Words Few words could ever convey, the true light that shines within you, Few words could ever compare, to the beauty of who you are, Few words could ever encapsulate, what radiates from your soul, Few words can express the music, that resounds through the halls of your mind. No words will…
Christopher chose positivity to live his life and focus on the horizon above. We witnessed him achieve some of his aspirations and were collectively joyful in his successes. Although we are deeply saddened and in disbelief at this tragic turn of events we can only imagine a symphony in the heavens where his music and talent…
Zeke was so vivacious and so kind; even though I only knew him for brief moments— a few days with friends in Prague; coffee in Berlin— he was so easy to spend time with. He brought joy with him. I always hoped that we would end up in the same place at the same time…
