Well, this may not mean much to you guys, although you might have seen him in supporting parts in LINCOLN, THE MASTER, or "The Sopranos." However, I went to college with him and knew him---not like best buddies, but I spoke to him and saw him in his college plays. We always thought he would make it big. I remember after he graduated I saw him in a local commercial for some local DeVry Institute of Technology type of school, and that was the last I thought I heard of him. I have actually seen him in many movies since then without realizing who it was I was watching until reading today's obituary. R.I.P. Mr. Welch.

Hey, Rev - not sure if you ever listen to the Doug Loves Movies podcast, but on the episode from 12/4/13, T.J. Miller did a nice little shout out to Christopher's passing.  Apparently, they were working on an HBO show together, and T.J. called him the funniest person on the show and had a lot of nice things to say about him.  He also turned it into a tasteless joke (but, not at Christopher's expense) because he thought he would have liked that.
