CHRISTOPHER HASTINGS Obituary
Christopher was born in Mount Vernon on July 13, 2007. In his three years of life on this Earth he was able to touch people he had or had not met in a profound way and he taught us all the valuable lesson of life and strength. He made us realize and recognize that there are things in our life that really just are not important and how important family is. Christopher had a wisdom beyond his years.
He leaves behind his loving parents, Leslie & Sarah Hastings and a loving big brother, Leslie at the family home: his maternal grandmother, Joyce Fuller and his paternal grandfather, Leslie Hastings; aunts, Lori Salmonson and Mary Farrar and uncles, Matt Hastings, Mark Fuller and Chris Fuller as well as many extended family members.
A memorial service in his honor will be held on Saturday, February 12, 2011 at 2:00pm at the Valley Baptist Church in Sedro-Woolley. All are welcomed to attend. Donations in lieu of flowers are encouraged. The Hastings family supports Children's Hospital Cancer Research for all donations.
Cremation arrangements are under the direction of Lemley Chapel, Sedro Woolley. Share memories of Christopher and sign the online guest register at www.lemleychapel.com or visit the Caring Bridge website at www.caringbridge.org/visit/christopherhastings to read about his journey with cancer and post notes or share memories.

My condolences on the loss of your beautiful little man. Your story makes my heart ache, as a mom of 2 sons, I can't imagine the pain and loss you all are feeling. Know that his light and life shine on in all of you and those he has touched, near and far.

The world is better because Topher was here. If only for a moment his little heart has changed lives for ever. His strength and courage was exemplary, a life worth emulating at such a young age. Thank you Les and Sarah for sharing his light with us. I look forward to the day when we will see him again and I can thank him in person for the lessons he has taught me and my family. One in a million!
