Chris was my manager for the last three years. I will miss him dearly! He was an incredibly sociable person who enjoyed having Happy Hour drinks with his colleagues and team. He assigned the euphemism ‘Liquidity Preference Function’ for these gatherings, borrowing it from a well known Macroeconomic theory. I fondly recall many such LPFs between the BMG team and various Business Banking partners (like me) in the early 2000’s. That’s when I got to know Chris, Dave Holvey, Karin Zahorik, Gary Walker and others quite well. In November 2012, with Chris’ support, I invited a few BBG partners to a LPF and they knew exactly what I was talking about! We had a fantastic time with Halley Porter and Ted Schroeder, which Chris thoroughly enjoyed. It is a memory of Chris that I will fondly keep for a very long time. May we keep his memory alive with many more LPFs! Mike Haddad
