He said said that returning to RSCC was like ‘coming home’ for him.
“Chris’ Mother’s Day performance exceeded expectations,” said RSCC’s manager of recreational programmes, Debbie Christen.
“Chris once again uplifted residents and staff alike, with renditions of That’s Amoré, Kumbaya, Silver Threads & Golden Needles and many other songs.
“He raised heartbeats with Nat King Cole’s romantic song, Unforgettable, and got everyone clapping, dancing and moving with Miriam Makeba’s song, Pata Pata.”
