I join the many who are sending prayers on your way into the spiritual world. May the love that accompanies you help through guide the way. Your deeds inspire me!

Cape Cod is a haven for all of the Lairds and Christopher spent so many loving days with his Grandfather here. He shared Summers on the Cape with his siblings as children, and played with my Daughter when she was five.  Over the years he brought so many friends, as this was a second home…

It is with such great sadness that we learn of the untimely passing of Chris.  He was a popular student at the Royal College of Music, his infectious personality and easy-going charm touching many lives, from his contemporaries, the staff who taught him, and the young children he inspired through the Sparks programme, and which…

I haven’t seen Chris since we graduated from high school but I have clear memories of his kind, sincere character.  We were in the orchestra together and I was always impressed with the way he approached music.  I knew he experienced the music in a way that I did not.  But, he was always supportive….

I had the privilege of study together with Chris at the RCM in London since 2017\. His pure joy of life, music and people gave an extra important dimension to the social and professional life in college. I would like to share with you this movement of E. Elgar’s Cello Concerto that Chris and I…

I have never met Christopher but knowing Quentin and Molly I can only imagine what a wonderful person he was. My thoughts and prayers are with you,Quentin, Molly,and Christopher. I can’t imagine what you are going through.  Love, Laura

Christopher was a remarkable RCM student, with a rare ability to inspire others.  His was a radiant personality, with a musical talent to match.  We worked together on a Mozart project in his final year; he was insightful and passionate.  Deepest condolences from the entire College community.  From the RCM Director
