Not sure what to say?





Mr. & Mrs. Douponce & Sara, I'm sending you my deepest sympathies on the loss of Chris. One of my favorite memories of him was when we were all in kindergarten and it was the day of the birthday lunch for the January birthdays. I'll never forget how excited the five of us (myself, Ashley, Jason, Chris, & Jackie) were that we got to stay for this special thing. I remember we were all literally jumping up and down practically before Mrs. Beckers left the room!! I don't know if he ever talked about or thought about any of us but I want you all to know that every year on his birthday I made sure to silently wish him a happy birthday as I do with all my former grade school classmates. RIP Chris

I remember Chris a sweet little blonde headed kid playing in the backyard with my kids on Fitzhugh St. He never gave me an ounce of trouble and was always kind to the other kids. I feel so bad for Jeff, Tina, and Sarah! You have our love and deepest condolences from all the Whyte family!
