I want to send my deepest condolences to the family of Coach Tri .
I was blessed to have Coach Tri as my Defensive Back coach from 88-90
He left so many good memories with me while I was an active Warrior Football player.
His focus was not only on developing good players, but more importantly developing into good people
He loved two things back then, the first was Betsy and then was Football
He loved to give the players nicknames and gave me the nickname "Sweet P"
So Rest in peace my friend Coach Tri as you have left many fond memories with me !
May God strengthen the family in these difficult times

Chris and my father are first-cousins. Chris came from a wonderful and close-knit Macedonian family. I am deeply saddened for Betsy and their lovely daughters, and for the Waterloo community in which he was active for decades. May you find strength in one another.

I was very saddened to hear about this news. My condolences to the family. I played as a Defensive Back at UW and Coach Chris was my DB coach. He was a nice man and a great mentor. As a father myself now, I can only imagine the void that will be felt. I hope the kids, and the family will have the strength and courage to go through these hard times.
Be strong and courageous.
Blessings to all

I was lucky to know Chris for over 40 years, from my time as a ballboy with the Etobicoke Argonauts (where I looked up to Chris as a star player on the team) to 18 years working with Greek at UW. My deepest sympathies go out to his wife, daughters and family. His wife and daughters were his world, and you could tell this from how he lit up when he spoke about them - a very proud father and husband. He was unique and was a real character - the Greek Football Philosopher. I think his best quality and what I will remember is the importance of relationships, and this is where he thrived whether it was relationships with his coaches, players, or co-workers. Rest in peace Greek.

Very sad news. Greek was a figure of prominence for me and all the staff at Hooligans where we worked together for a few years. We had good times. We lost touch but I heard of Chris often through the many students who left high school to go play for the warriors. I am glad to have known him.

I remember Chris from high school. He was a great athlete and an even greater person. Can’t believe he’s gone so young.

Had the privilege of meeting Chris in grade 9 and having the pleasure of playing along side him on the football field and basketball court for the next 5 years while also creating great memories of our high school years. His huge desire and focus made him a tough competitor and exceptional athlete. He played an instrumental role in our incredible 1975 graduating year team defense and he went on to impart his knowledge and desire, his impact and legacy with his athletes will live on. It's a sad time but I hope that the memories his girls and Betsy have will provide some comfort during these difficult times. RIP Chris.

Dear Betsy and Family,
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy and condolences for the loss of a beloved husband, father and brother. I hope you can take some consolation that the very best parts of Chris live on through the lives of his three daughters and through the lives of the many young men he coached and inspired over the years. I also hope you find comfort knowing that Baba was waiting at heaven's door to welcome him and although is he no longer with you, he is not alone.
With sympathy,
Marna Urbanski (Valerie's sister)
