I think of Chris's respect for and kindness toward everyone he encountered and I know his spirit is with us still. And I'm still mad at God because his love and spirit are all we have.

To Bonnie, Robin and family,

As far back as I can remember, being with Chris meant having fun. Chris blessed us all with his natural ability to make others laugh and feel accepted for who they are. I have never known another person with a heart as big and geniune as Chris'. His death is so unfair and senseless, but may it comfort us all somewhat to know that we are better people for having had him in our lives.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your beautiful son Christopher. He sounds a lot like my nephew Christopher, who was killed at 16 by a hit and run driver. I think they both shared that special gift of putting people at ease and good humor. My prayers are with you all and Chris.

Christopher,
I didn't know you in life but I'm sure my son will find you in heaven. Sounds like you both loved to laugh and were good, kind people.
