Jami Lee Hogg Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 This so saddens me to have read this. Chris will be missed by family, friends and Duke fans.http://brbtv.blogspot.com/2011/07/christopher-mayer-passes-away.html(I hope it was okay to post the link for this) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HossC Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Just like when news of Peggy Rea's death broke earlier this year, there only seems to be one source for this story at the moment. Wikipedia and IMDb don't have anything about it yet. Sadly, the Peggy Rea story proved to be true, and I suspect this will too. This has been a terrible year for losing cast members. It's almost worse that the story breaks on the day that Jimmie is celebrating his 85th birthday.Condolences to Christopher's family and friends.

They can be helpful sometimes. Link - John's unofficial fan club Facebook page, Hazzardnet member John's No 1 Fan posted John's response to the passing of Chris Mayer.Chris battled with his "demons", he started to do public appearances again and was suppose to get married in the near future. RIP Chris, thank you for being a part of the Dukes Of Hazzard community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrett Duke Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) Very sad news. Chris and his family are in my thoughts and prayers. May he rest in peace.Wish they would say what had happened and not leave us hanging like this wondering what had happened to him. Guess it shouldn't matter. It is sad anyway it happened. Must be very shocking and upset to his family and friends. Edited July 27, 2011 by Garrett Duke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obituary - does not list a cause of death.What I read on his FB memorial page - Link -I think he died in his sleep of natural causes?This interview is from or to promote The Hollywood Show Feb 2011. Haven't listened to it yet. Not exactly sure what is said. Thank you Mufn, MaryAnne & Brian for sharing Bryon's message on the main page.

Jami Lee Hogg Posted July 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Think this year has been terrible. In my family we have lost 3 members and in the duke family 3 members. Its hard to know what to feel. I can some what imagine what Chris family is feeling. To lose your dad at any age is terrible and for Chris's girlfriend her heart is breaking with a pain that you don't think will ever heal. Its not fair when you lose someone so sudden just leaves a hole in your soul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDuke Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 This is terrible. I was on a trip since Tuesday morning and haven't logged in since Monday night so I was shocked a couple minutes ago when I found out. I don't know what to say. It hasn't sunk in yet. My condolences to Christopher's family, friends and fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZacharyDeck Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 I didn't realized that Christopher passed away last year and three months later Dan Wheldon passed away after a 15-car crash in the Indy 300 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in the IZOD Indycar Series.

Bo Duke's Girl Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 And it's also terrible that he was still young and still had alot of his life ahead of him! I think he went way too soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
