I have known you since 2nd grade and hearing of you passing has brought on so many memories of you. My condolences to your family. Rest easy.
Christopher was my cousin. He was close to
My parents who considered him a “special nephew”
My heart is broken by his death. I pray for his previous family.
Years of memories of a special nephew from the start. Many visits together during your childhood, grade school years, up to high school graduation, college and beyond. Always, proud of and admired your hard work and overcomer attitude as you worked through your life and education. You became a family man, and together with Melissa, had two beautiful children. I will deeply miss our one on one conversations about your young life, life in general and your career. You are gone way to soon. It is earths loss and heavens gain. Until we see each other again, “Be at Peace Christopher”.
Love, Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Terry
