To my nephew Donald, to Debbie, my great-niece Traci, and the rest of the Wells family;
I was very saddened when I heard of Chris' passing. Just remember, Chris has gone on to a better place where there is no more pain or suffering. He is with someone who will look after him better than any of us ever could. Be blessed and remember the joy and the love your son, brother, grandson, nephew, friend and co-worker brought each of you. Think of the happy times, the smiles, the laughters and Chris just being Chris. This can and will bring you some peace. You all are going to miss him and many tears will be shed but remember " Weeping may endurth for the night but joy will come in the morning".

Love to you all.
