Christopher James "Buggy" Allmand-Abarca

I miss you Bug...so much. Life is going on, but it is not the same without you around. It´s so hard to find peace and I know you would want me to....Your memories flood my mind everyday and I think often of you and your girls. I remember when you loved to ride our horse happy, you were so little Bug..the years flew by........seems like life is so unfair. I hope heaven is as amazing as the Bible says it is. Love you Bug

Met Chris for the first time when Tammy sold my parents their home. He was so little. I have loved all of the times we ran into Tammy and the kids. He would give you a hug no matter what. Heaven gained a beautiful soul and can only imagine how much fun they are having with Chris.

Buggy and I would always run around in Redmond together, if it wasnt putting in stereos in our cars ,it was putting on rims ,hanging out at tammys clothing store or at the house those were good times buggy. Were all going to miss you rest easy brother love ya!!

Chris was an absolute wonderful person, even in grade school and high school. He was the same age as my son and they played baseball together. One day during a game, I was sitting in car way out in parking lot due to weather being very cold and me forgetting a blanket that day. Chris hit a foul ball and low and behold it hit my windshield. Chris came over after the game and apologized profusely. Tammy - what a wonderful son you raised. So likeable and loved his smile - wonderful...

Buggy is my middle son. He was an incredible man, a great son and father. He was talented and could build or fix just about anything. He was involved in the family and deeply embedded in our community. He loved life and enjoyed many things like hunting, fishing, having a beer with his buddies and being with his family. His brothers and sisters could always count on him to be there for anything they threw together. He was the life of the party and is missed deeply.
