About

A kind soul....

Chris was a Doctor for 20 years and his practice was in Broadmeadows.He was always a defender of the helpless and those in need.Those who knew him spoke of his kindness and love for animals and his playful antics. He was also quite controversial in the medical world. He spoke up about the drug issues in Broadmeadows.Ice was the drug that was the most destructive to his patients.He was'nt one to be afraid to expose malpractice in hospitals.There was a major case in 2005 that he vocalised.
His beloved Rotweiller-cross Nuk Nuk was known to accompany him to his clinic everyday.Chris was much loved by his patienrts and was not only a Doctor but a friend to them.They were not 'just another number' to him.On Black Saturday he stayed behind defending his dogs, various other pets and prized Camels.He lived a interesting and brilliant life and left a imprint on everyones heart.

To the 'fisherman'

Becca Feb 23, 2009

Dear Chris,
You will never receive this message in this life.I hope that you can read it from Heaven.
You were so brave to fight the fire the best you could.A true hero is you: Mr Christopher Ree's Towie.The man with the most beautiful eyes.The man I nicknamed The Fisherman,for you had that ruggard handsome look of a fisherman years at Sea.I hope that you sail away in a beautiful boat of dreams on the Ocean's of Life in peace now.
Remember,with the stories of your life that will forever be told,,,you will live on in the hearts of those you left behind...this way you become immortal.
With Love,
Becca
