Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Sandra and Carrier Family: I am so sorry for your loss. I considered Chris a great friend and colleague. I became city manager in Dodge City in 1994 while Chris was serving as Director of Public Works and Engineering for Dodge City. He was so good to me and helped with my transition into the new job. Since those days we have talked on and off and I always enjoyed the sense of humor he brought to public service. We lost a great man and an outstanding public offical. God Bless your family.
Jamie, Sandra and family- We are sorry for your loss. We know you will miss Chris greatly. Remember he is always in your heart so he is never far away. He is resting with God now. We love you and will continue to pray for you right now.
Dear Sandra and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Chris was a wonderful and caring man. I will never forget yours and Chris wedding day,Sandra. He began to read his vows to you and started to cry and could not go on, so you took the paper and read it for him. It was very touching for everyone. That’s just shows the love he had for you Sandra. Again, my prayers go out to you all. Love, Jo Ann
My heartfelt condolences reach out to the family of Chris Carrier. Chris was a friend who could always be relied upon to make his word his bond and his actions above reproach. I succeeded Chris as public works director of Ford County and enjoyed a wonderful working relationship with Chris when he was the Public Works Director/Engineer for Dodge City. The engineering profession and the citizens of Wichita have suffered a grievious loss. May peace find you all. Respectfully,
Joey and Jamie, I’m so sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts during this time. I was even thinking about you two just the other day. Take care and again, I’m sorry for your loss.
To the family: Please accept my deepest sympathy. I will sincerely miss him. I have worked with him over the past several years and knew him to be dedicated to his job working for the City of Wichita and of course, to his family. I wish you all peace. Dr. Thom Rosenberg, Mayor, City of Eastborough.
Sandra and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Chris was a great guy and always made me laugh so hard. Sandra…remember the movie we went to recently and he made such a fuss about his popcorn, and then ended up falling asleep? lol We always had such a good time when you guys were around. He will really be missed.
