A borough resident from 1984 until his death in 2024, Chris Christian considered himself a ‘Hellertonian’ even though he grew up in New York City. After his retirement from Lehigh University, he enjoyed sports photography and his interaction with the participants of Saucon Valley sports teams. He also enjoyed “working at a locally-oriented publication, helping to present some of the activities and celebrations that define our wonderful community.” We thank Chris for his service to Saucon Source and the Saucon Valley.
