Yeah, the right here goes out to everyone who's lost some that they truly loved...Check it out....
Seems like yesterday we used to rock the show
I laced the track, you locked the flow
So far from hangin on the block for dough
Notorios you got to know that
Life anit always what it seems to bee
Words cant express what you mean to me
Even though your gone we still a team
Through your family ill fulfill your dreams
In the furture cant wait to see if you'll
Open up the gates for me
Reminesce sometime, the night they took my friend
Try to block it out but it plays agian
When its real fealings hard to conceal
Cant imagine all the pain i feal
Give anything to hear half your breath
I know your still living your life after death
Every step I take
Every move I make
Every single day
Everytime i pray
ill be missing you
thinking of the day
when you went away
what a life to take
what a bond to break
ill be missing you
Chris
It's kinda hard wit you not around
Know your in heaven smiling down
Watching us while we pray for you
everyday we pray for you
Till the day we met again
In my heart is were ill you friend
Memories give me the strengh i need to proceed
Strenght i need to believe
My thoughts, Big, just cant define
Wish I could turn back the hands of time
Us and the six shop for new clothes and kicks
You and me takin flics
Makin hits, stages they receive you on
Still cant believe your gone
Give anything to hear half your breath
I know your still living your life after death
Somebody tell me why....
On that moring
When his life is over
I know ill see your face.......
Every night i pray
Every step i take
Every move i make
Every single day

Dear Libby, My heart goes out to you [and also Max] in this tragic and painful loss I would call or come to see you to give what comfort I am able but I dont have your present address or phone number. If you will email me at [email protected] I will reply with my phone number or you can give me yours if you want. I have prayed many times to Jehovah to comfort you with the sure hope thatyou will see your son Chris again in the Resurrection right here on earth in the not too distant future. We used to be friends many years ago. I have not forgotten you even though Iam now old [78!] and experienced many painful losses myself. The comfort I offer is from our Creator Jehovah God through his Son our Lord and Redeemer, Jesus Christ , the best and only true comfort there is. Chris is sleeping now and will be so glad to be reunited with you and other family members when what Jesus said [recorded at John 5:28]is a reality: " Do not marvel at this because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.." and at John 11:25-27 "Jesus said to her: “I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life; 26 and everyone that is living and exercises faith in me will never die at all. Do you believe this?” 27 She said to him: “Yes, Lord; I have believed that you are the Christ the Son of God, the One coming into the world"Even those who may not have understood or heard about these things are promised a resurrection. Acts 24: 14-15 tells us:"I believe all the things set forth in the Law and written in the Prophets; 15 and I have hope toward God, which hope these [men] themselves also entertain, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous." These words are from the Holy Bible from the God who cannot lie and who brought his Only Begoten Son, Jesus Christ, out of the grave after three days and there wer hundreds of eyewitnesses to that miracle. Jesus Christ is now enthroned as King of God's Kingdom in heaven and all evidence is that soon that Heavenly rule will extend to all the earth just as so many Christians and even others pray when they say what is known as the Lord's Prayer or the Our Father [Matthew 6:9-15]“‘Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified. 10 Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth. 11 Give us today our bread for this day; 12 and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 And do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the wicked one.’
14 “For if YOU forgive men their trespasses, YOUR heavenly Father will also forgive YOU; 15 whereas if YOU do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will YOUR Father forgive YOUR trespasses" When God's will is done on earth as it is now done in heaven, then what is recorded at Revelation 21:3-5 will be a joyful reality:". With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
5 And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also, he says: “Write, because these words are faithful and true.” Yes Libby, we can believe these words because they are recorded in the Book which has Almighty God Jehovah, as the Author who stands by His Word in spite of all the efforts of His enemy Satan the Devil and those he uses to destroy that word both literally and in trying to undermine faith in it. But the word of God endures forever and everything He says He will do He will do. ", For just as the pouring rain descends, and the snow, from the heavens and does not return to that place, unless it actually saturates the earth and makes it produce and sprout, and seed is actually given to the sower and bread to the eater, 11 so my word that goes forth from my mouth will prove to be. It will not return to me without results, but it will certainly do that in which I have delighted, and it will have certain success in that for which I have sent it." Isaiah 55:10-11.. This is part of the good news which this God is having proclaimed throughout the entire inhabited earth for a witness and you can be glad that there is a hope for your future for the future of your dear son and all others of suffering mankind including me and everyone you know, guaranteed by the One who is able to do all things since He is the One who made all things and who gave His Only Begoten Son that whoever exercises faith in him will not die but will receive everlasting life. [John 3:16] I hope you will get in touch with me, if not, my prayers still go out in your behalf, Libby, because I remember you with real affection.May Jehovah the God of all comfort comfort your broken heart. " Jehovah is near to those that are broken at heart;
And those who are crushed in spirit he saves " Psalm 34:18 --alice scialdone

Libby,
Today, like the last 11 months of our lives is like a dream. I think of you often and our boys every day. I have tears running down my face as I write this note with loving grace. I know how much love those boys gave and the joy and laughter they shared with all they met. They gave such memories... as I read from all the entries, I know they were loved and had so many special friends.....they are a light in all our lives that will shine forever and be apart of us always.
I Love You,
Your Specail Friend,

Yesterday, MY husband and I traveled thru that fatefull road. We stoped and said a prayer at the Three Crosses on the road. We could not even Imagine the pain your families feel. We remember Cris in many ways. Our sons always have a story to tell about his smiling face and his laughter and his unique ways of doing things. Our hearts go out to your Family on this Memorial Day. A candle burns in our home for all those dearly departed and Cris is one of them. May God give you all peace in your hearts and in your minds. Cris is in a better place. He is with God.
We loved Cris too.

Dear Aunt Libby
My heart goes out for you and the pain you are in. I pray to God that I don't have to go through what you and Grandma have had to endure with losing a child. Please give Gracie all of your love and always talk to her about Chris.Which I know that you will! Little girls really miss out alot when they lose their fathers.
All my love,

Dear Chris,
It's been 10 long months today. I miss you more and more. I still ask God "Why?" Why Chris, why now? The timing was all wrong. I didn't get to say I was sorry. I didn't get to say goodbye. I love you son. I miss you.

Chris,
I sat beside your grave today and wept as I often do. I put some new spring flowers in the vase and swept the sand from your marker. I miss you so much son. Some days my heart aches so bad and I don't know how it continues to beat. I pray that you hear me when I talk to you, and that you know how much you are loved and missed.
You and Misty are my heart.
Love you forever
Mom loves you son.
December 29, 2005
Chris,
I don't have the words to say how much I miss you. You left me six months ago today, and I miss you more and more each day.
Christmas came and went and every sight, sound, and smell reminded me of when you were little and how much you loved Christmas. You loved putting the ornaments on the tree and always wanted lots of lights on the house. I have so many wonderful memories of Christmas past.
The boys got lots of presents. They are really growing fast. Uncle Chris will always be a part of their life.
Son, I want to put my arms around you and hug you tight and tell you that I love you. I always wanted the best life for you and Misty, and I would do anything for you both.
There are three heart broken mothers and fathers left behind, and three precious sons that are loved and missed. Chris, Brad, and Josh, please look after us. We love you all so much and look forward to seeing you all again someday soon.

Hi son,
Well, it's been 4 months today since you left us. It still hurts like it was yesterday. I miss you so much! You are on my mind and heart 24/7. I pray that God is still watching over you like I've prayed since you were born. You left so many friends and loved ones behind. My only hope is God's promise that I will see you again in heaven. I love you son, and I'm still so proud to be your mom. You and Misty are my treasures.
My love for you both is eternal.

HAPPY 26TH BIRTHDAY CHRIS!
Twenty-six years ago today was such a joyful day for me. I gave birth to the most beautiful, chubby, baby boy I had ever seen. You were such a bright, cheerful, loving child growing up. You brought so much joy to our family. I can't believe it's been 26 years. Where did the time go? How I wish I could turn back the clock! How I wish I could hear your voice saying "Hey mom, it's Chris, give me a call" like I've heard so many times before.
Chris, you are loved and missed by so many friends and family. It's so hard to go on in this world without you here. You are my guardian angel, and I need you to help me to keep moving forward until the day that God calls me home too.
I love you. I'm so proud to always be your mom. Happy Birthday my son. I miss you.
August 28, 2005
Just a reminder Chris that you have so many people that love and miss you. You were a good friend with a big heart. I miss your sense of humor and seeing that beautiful smile. You are now my guardian angel. You will NEVER be forgotten.
Love you for eternity.
Libby (Chris' Mom)

To my beautiful baby boy.
I had once told you that if anything happened to you that they would have to bury me with you. Well, it's been over a month now, and I'm still here. It's not the same without you son. I miss you so much. I want to hug you and see your smile. I want to hear your laugh. You are constantly on my mind. Gracie is doing fine. She is beautiful. I promise I will tell her all about her daddy. I long to see you. I wish I could take your place. I love you so much son.

Not a day goes by that we think about Chris. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We cling to the hope that thr Bible holds out for our loved ones who sleep in death. Please find comfort in these words:
Life Without End -At Last
Can you see, with your minds eye, Peoples living together?
Sorrow has passed. Peace at last! Life without tears and pain.
Man and beast, living in peace, Cause no harm to each other. Food will be there. All will share In what our God provides.
In those days old will grow young, flesh revived as in childhood. Troubles are gone, from now on No need to weep or fear.
Paradise all will enjoy As they sing of Gods glory. Yes every day we will say To God our Maker, "Thanks!"

My Condolance To You Uncle Max Aunt Libby For Your Loss Of Chris.
But Im So Glad That Chris Accepted
Jesus Christ As His Lord And Saviour.
2 corinthians 5:6
Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
5:7
(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
5:8
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
5:9
Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
5:10
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

Dear Libby & Family, Words cannot describe the sorrow I feel for you today. Although I know that they are with the Lord and in a much better place than we are, it breaks my heart when such young, beautiful souls are taken from us so early in life. Libby, you are such a wonderful person and my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I can't even imagine the extent of your grief, but I feel it in my heart and soul. Your friends at Bel-Aire Baptist have been praying for you and we want you to know how much we love you and will continue to keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers!

Dear Libby, My deepest and heartfelt sympathy goes to both you and Max at this sad time. May the consolations from God's own Word the Bible comfort you, as well as each of us who have gone through this heartbreak or who will in some later time. Acts 24:15 promises that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous and Revelation 21:3,4 shows that death will be no more and that God's tent of protection will be right here on earth with mankind ,in the restored paradise we know will be a reality, since it is impossible for God to lie. If you would, please call me at my [unlisted] phone number, which I gave to the gentleman on the phone there on O'Neal Road a little earlier, as I don't have your number anymore. Please give my sympathy to Max also, and to Jeff too. I did not know he was no longer in Mt Vernon. I havent heard from them in years.. I do hope you will call when you get some time. I have often thought of you fondly. May Jehovah comfort you and your other dear ones who are hurting from this loss. your friend. alice scialdone
