Story
Chris Rhodes sadly passed away on the 14th July 2019 after a short battle with prostate cancer. Throughout his life Chris has been an absolute rock to Steph, his wife of 21 years, and his 7 children, whom have lost a devoted father, peacemaker and breadwinner.
Over the last 23 years he has helped thousands of IT professionals in their career, teaching Microsoft technology courses both throughout the UK and internationally. He was a career Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT), Tech Evangelist and seven time Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) awardee.
Chris was diagnosed on his return from Ignite 2018 with prostate cancer.
During the last year, Chris has been keen to promote that all men should regularly get tested. An early diagnosis can have a huge effect on your prognosis. Alas Chris was unaware that he had prostate cancer until it was well established.
This funding page has been created for you to show your respects, and all proceeds will be donated to help his family come to terms with their loss.
Chris was a true #RockStar. He will be hugely missed.
** The details of the funeral will be updated once available **

Chris was an amazing man who fizzed with enthusiasm. Many people at the University (Hull) were trained by Chris and we are all in shock. It's terrible. Our thoughts are with his family at this time.
